Ihihi discovered a perfect cure for Cancers without the use of the knife. Thous^ands of 
cashes cured can testily to the efficacy of this plan of treatment. This preparation will 
destroy the specific nature of most Cancers in from ten to sixty minutes. Even in those 
large Cancerous affections of the hreast, from which so many females die annually, my 
specific is equally as eftectual as in those smaller surtace Cancers. Nincty-uiue out of a 
hundred of all those persons who have died from Cancer, could easily have heen cured. 
Cancer lias been considered from time immemorial the greatest scourge of the human 
race ; hut the time \vill come when all shall see that it islis remediable'as any other dis- 
ease. At the same time remedies are given to purify the blood and fortify the system 
against a renewed attack. In all cases, if the Cancer is not too far advanced, a perfect 
cure is warranted, or no charge. 

Most persons are greatly de'ceived in regard to the first sjanptoms and appearance of 
Cancer, considering it very painful fronrthe commencement. This is a sad mistake, 
(causing the death of thous'ands,) there being but little or no pain until the Cancer is far 
advanced. Tlie only symptoms for months, and in some cases even for years, is occa- 
sionally either a sting'ing, itching, smarting, burning, creeping or shooting sensation, 
and in some cases not even any of'' these. Nearly all of those kernels or lumps that occur 
in the female breast, and also those unnatural appearances in the form of crusts or warty 
excrescence, which appear in either sexou the face, li]is, nose, eye lids, orany other i)art 
of the surface, are cancers. Cancer is very easily cured in its early stage, consequently 
it is of the very greatest importance that all tlius afflicted' should have immediali^ ti'eat- 
ment; as thousands of very valuable lives have been lost from pure neglect, ha^-ing been 
misguided by physicians having no knowledge of the disease, who, by calling it Scrofula, 
Erysipelas, Salt Rheum or sonie other non-terrifying disease, lull this uufortunat<' class 
in "tlie cradle of ignorance, until upon the very verge of death, when, to hide such ignor- 
ance, the physician tells the patient that it 'has finally turned to Cancer, and cannot he. 
cured. There is no such thing as turning to Cancer. Whatever ends in Cancer, began 
in Cancer. Be no longer deceived. If yoii have the slightest suspicion of trouble, seek 
immediate relief and tnereby preserve life.

INTRODUCTION.

A^J '^.- 



In presenting to the pnblic the initial number of the " Gazet- 
teer and Directory of Montgomery and Fulton Counties," the 
publisher desires to return his sincere thanks to all who have 
so kindly assisted in obtaining the valuable information which 
it contains, and without whose aid it would have been impossi- 
ble to collect it in the brief space of time in which it is essen- 
tial that all such works should be completed. Especially are 
our thanks due to the several editors of the Mohawk Valley 
Z^emocra^;, Fonda; Canajoharie Radii, C2in.2,]ohsin.Q ; Mohawk Val- 
ley Register, Fort Plain ; Amsterdam Recorder, Amsterdam ; 
Montgomery Republican, Fultonville ; Fulton County Democrat and 
the Johnstoxon Independent, Johnstown ; Gloversville Standard, 
Oloversville Intelligencer, and the Gloversville Democrat, Glovers- 
ville, for the uniform kindness which has been evinced in call- 
ing public attention to the author's efforts ; and to the follow- 
ing persons, viz., L. F. Burr, Johnstown, late School Commis- 
sioner of Fulton County, and Cyrus Stewart, Gloversville, the 
present incumbent of the oflBce ; A. B. Miller, Fultonville, late 
School Commissioner of Montgomery Co. ; James P. Brook- 
man, County Clerk, Fonda; James H. Cook, County Judge and 
Surrogate, Canajoharie; Hon. S. Pulver Heath, Amsterdam, 
Assessor Internal Revenue ; Pythagoras Wltmore, and to many 
others in various parts of the County who have kindly volun- 
teered their aid. 

The following works were consulted in its preparation ; 
" French's Gazetteer of the State of New York ;" "Annals of 
Tryon County ;" " Stone's Life of Brant;" Stone's Life of Sir 



INTRODUCTION. 



William Johnson ;" " Simms' Trappers of New York ;" " Los- 
sing's Pictorial Field Book of the Eevolution ;" New York State 
Census Reports of 1865 ;" and "Proceedings of Boards of Super- 
visors" of Montgomery and Fulton Counties. 

That errors may have occurred in so great a number of names 
and dates as are here given, is probable, and that names have 
been omitted that should have been inserted is quite certain. 
We can only say that we have exercised more than ordinary dili- 
gence and care in this difficult and complicated feature of book- 
making. Of such as feel aggrieved in consequence of error or 
omission, we beg pardon, and ask the indulgence of the reader 
in marking such as were observed in the subsequent reading of 
the proofs, and which are noted in the Errata, following the 
Introduction. 

It is also suggested that our patrons observe and become fa- 
miliar with the explanations at the commencement of the Di- 
rectory. 

The Map of the County was engraved with great care by 
Messrs. " Weed, Parsons & Co.," of Albany, and, it is believed, 
will prove a valuable acquisition to the work. 

The Advertisers represent some of the leading business men 
and firms of the County, and also many enterprising and relia- 
ble dealers in other parts of the State. We most cheerfully com- 
mend them all to the patronage of those under whose observa- 
tion these pages may come. 

With thanks to friends generally, we leave our work to secure 
the favor which earnest endeavor ever wins from a discriminating 
business public.

GA^ZETTEEH— MIontgoixiery Coixnty. 

Palatine.— Palatine p. c, at Palatine Church, has been discontinued. 

St. Johnsville,— ;?<. Johnsmlle (p. v.) contains two churches, viz., Reformed and 
Union ; two hotels, a bank, a grist mill, two saw mills, a woolen mill, two carriage 
shops, a cheese factory, a union school, several stores, mechanic shops &c., and an esti- 
mated population of 1J50. 

The Flouring_ and Custom Mill of Beekman Brothers is built of stone, forty by sixty 
feet, three stories high, and has a capacity for grinding 700 bushels per day. 

The Carnage Manufactory of Saltsman Brothers was established in 1848, employs 14 
hands and turns out from 75 to 100 carriages and about 50 sleighs annually. 

Union School occupies a building 40 by 70 feet, and two stories high besides the base- 
ment. Four teachers are employed and the average attendance of pupils is about 150. 

The Easterbrooh Brick Manufactory was established in St. Johnsville in 1857, by John 
B. Churchill. Mr. Basterbrook, the present proprietor, manufactures from 500,000 to 
700.000 bricks annually. 

Mather Creek Cheese FacUrry, In the north-east part of the town, was established in 
1867 and uses the milk of 400 cows. 

The Reformed Church of St. Johnsville was organized as an independent German 
Eeformed Church in 1770. Eev. John H. Dryslin was the first pastor. In 1812 it was 
re-organized as a Reformed Dutch Church. Rev. David Devoe was the first pastor aftt;r 
the rg-organization, and continued his ministry until 1830. Rev. J. Kneeskern is the 
present pastor. The present church edifice was erected in 1804. It is of wood, was 
repaired in 184S and will seat 400 persons. The present membership is 110.

OA-ZETTEEK,- JFulton Coixnty, 

Caroga.— Pine Lake {p. o.) is a hamlet in the center of the town, about three- 
fourths of a mile south of Wheelersville. 

Pertlt.— The following historic sketch of the United Presbyterian Church in the 
town of Perth, was furnished by the pastor, Rev. I. L. Clark, but too late for insertion 
in its regular place. 



10 EBB ATA. 

This Church was formally organized in the year 1804, on the 20th day of Sept., by the 
ordination and installation of the following persons as Ruling Elders in the congrega- 
tion, viz : Mr. John Mcintosh, Sea., Mr. John Walker, Mr. John McBrath. It was 
organized by the Associate Reformed Presbytery of Saratoga, and it retained its eccle- 
siastical connection with the Associate Reformed Church until the union of that body 
with the Associate Church, forming the United Presbyterian Church, when it entered 
the new organlaation and has been since known as the United Presbyterian Church of 
Broadalbin. It was organized in the town of Broadalbin, and was therefore named the 
Associate Reformed Church of Broadalbin ; but on the erection of the new county of 
Fulton, and the new town of Perth, it fell in with ihe "new comers," but without giv- 
ing up either its location or name. This explains why the Church is now in one town 
and yet bears the name of another. It is the oldest Church in the town and for a num- 
ber of years the only one. Its first house of worship was a frame building, located on 
the south side of the stroet, opposite the present one. The entrance to it, unlike the 
way to Heaven, was obscure, the door, for some reason, bein'^ placed in the rear, or the 
end most remote from the street. It was also innocent of artificial heat. No fire was 
kindled against the winter's wind and frost save that which burned on God's Altar — 
the love and zeal that glowed in Christian hearts. This doubtless beguiled the hour 
from tediousness and warmed the saints, but how the sinners endured we never 
learned. We may smile at the simplicity and rudeness of these olden times, but when 
we remember how much we are indebted to them, we may well reverence them and go 
down upon our knees in gratitude. And while we admit progress in these later days 
we may well ask the question, " Has not modern caterin" to taste and fashion, and 
fleshly ease and comfort, done much to drive out the angel ufeof religion from the soul, 
and smother out the fire of piety in the heart, and thus robbed the Church in a great 
measure of that spirituel power that characterized it in more primitive days ? " The 
second and present house of worship is built of brick, and is beautifully located on the 
north side of the street. It is a fine looking building, both neat and comfortable. It 
will accommodaie some six hundred worshipers. The first pastor of the congregation 
was Rev. Robert Proudflt, D. D. He held this relation for sixteen years, when it was 
dissolved, and he removed to Schenectady to fill a Professor's chair in Union College. 
Rev. Jas. Otterson was their next pastor. He remained about five years, when he was 
called to another field of labor. They were then blest with the faithful and efficient 
labors of Rev. Malcom McLarren, D. D., who held the pastoral relation for seven years, 
and was dismissed to take another charge. Then the Vastorate was filled ten years by 
Rev. David Caw ; then eleven years by Rev. John M. Graham, and now nearly twelve 
years by the present incumbent. Rev. J. L. Clark. And during all these 65 years of its 
existence this Church has been united and prosperous, doing a work for the Master, 
the extent and importance of which the Judgment Day alone will reveal. It has sent 
forth a number from its communion to preach the Gospel, some of whom have risen 
to eminence in the ministry. Many of its members from time to time have gone West, 
some to organize new churches, others to reinforce old ones. Thus it has been a foun- 
tain from which have issued streams that have made the desert and the solitary places 
to rejoice and blossom as the rose. It is doing the same work still. Yearly the old 
hive swarms. And thus by sending out its little colonies, tho' it has ever been a grow- 
ing Church, it has been prevented from increasing its membership to a very high num- 
ber at any one time. At present its membership is something over two hundre'd. May 
it stiil flourish like the palm tree and bring forth fruit in old age, and may its candle- 
stick never be removed.

Tlie Moliawk. Valley Demo- 
crat, published at Fonda, by C. B. Free- 
man, editor and proprietor, is advertised 
on page 3U0. It is the only Democratic pa- 
per published in the County, and is a wor- 
• thy exponent of the principles of the party 
it represents. Its news and local depart- 
ments are well sustained, and its circula- 
tion is such as to make it a good medium 
for advertising:. Job Printing of all kinds 
neatly and cheaply done. 

The Warrior Moiirer Company 

of Little Falls, successors to Bramer & 
Pierce, of Fabius, advertise on page 18. 
The Young Warrior Mower, of their manu- 
facture, has been gradually growing in favor 
with the public since its first introduction, 
six years ago, and the improvements which 
have been suggested by its use have made 
it one of the most perfect and reliable ma- 
chines ever offered to a discriminating pub- 
lic. At several trials of Mowing Machines 
duriug the past season, the Young Warrior 
was declared by the judges superior to the 
others. It has very light draft and does its 
work well. This popular Mower was in- 
vented by Mr. Frank Bramer a few years 
since, and secured by letters patent. Its 
manufacture was commenced and carried 
on at Fabius, Onondaga County, until 1868, 
An exhibition of one of these machines in 
the field at Little Falls in that season, pro- 
duced an impression so favorable on some 
enterprising citizens of that place, that a 
company was organized and incorporated 
for its manufacture at Little Falls. It com- 
menced business there on the first of De- 
cember, 1868. The establishment is on 
the south side of the river, adjoining the 
tow path of the Erie Canal. The principal 
building is of brick and stone, 80 feet by 40, 
four stories high, with an excellent water 
power. Another building has been erect- 
ed adjoining, one story high, with an 
area of 3000 square feet, to increase its ca 
pacity. Its castings are procured from the 
neighboring furnace of Mr. Rtddy. The 
Company commenced moderately, pro- 
ducing only 600 machines the first year, 
intending to enlarge its capacity and num- 
ber of the mowers from year to year, as its 
merits became better known. It employed 
40 men last winter, besides the furnace men. 
Arphaxed Loomis is the President of the 
Company, and Frank Bramer the Manag- 
ing Agent. The Company hope by their 
increased facilities for the manufacture of 
this machine to keep pace with the increas- 
ing demand. 

C. H. Norton, Watch Maker and 
dealer in Watches, Jewelry, Silver and 
Plated Ware &c., 114 Main street, Glov- 
ersville, N. Y., advertises on page 313. His 
9t!>ck is one of the best selected in the 
County and contains a variety seldom seen 
ii. places of thib size. Persons in want of 
good Watches, eifher American or Foreign, 
win find them here and at prices to suit, 
while his stock of Jewelry and Plated 
Ware is from the best manufacturers in the 
country. Let those interested call and 
satisfy themselves of the truth of our state- 
ment. 



mason House, Gloversville, N. Y., 
under the proprietorship of James J. Barr, 
has recently been fitted up with all tho 
modern improvements, and is now pre- 
pared to receive and entertain guests in a 
manner not surpassed by any hotel in tliis 
part of the State. The floors are marble, 
the rooms are spacious, well ventilated, 
kept in good order and lighted with gas. 
Being located at the corner of Main and 
•Fulton streets, it is favorably situated for 
the transaction of business in any part of 
the village. Persons visiting Gloversville 
temporarily on business, or wishing a per- 
manent place to board, will find this house 
admirably adapted to their wants. The 
tables are furnished with the beat the sea- 
son affords ; the barns are kept in good 
order and are attended by careful grooms, 
and everything inside and out is arranged 
for comfort and convenience. Mr. Barr 
will spare no pains to make his guests 
comfortable and happy. 

A very fine Hall is connected with the 
house, fitted up for the accommodation of 
public meetings. Theatricals &c. It has a 
gallery, a large stage, dressing rooms, foot 
lights &c., and a capacity for seating about 
one thousand persons. See card, page 198. 

The HoTve Sewing OTachine, 

advertised on colored page 216, by the 
agents, Messrs. Bostock & Newbury, No. 
114 Main street, Gloversville, N. Y., has 
proved triumphant, after years of trial. 
To those who are desirous of knowing why 
this Machine is the favorite with so many 
people, we would say that the needle used 
is smaller with the same sized thread, than 
that used by other machines, making the 
work firm and strong, and using silk, linen 
or cotton thread equally well. The ten- 
sions of both upper and under threads do 
not vary, so that the threads are exactly 
interlocked in the center of the fabrics, 
giving the seam the same appearance on 
both sides. The Machine is simple in con- 
struction, employing only one cam and 
lever each for the needle action, shuttle 
course and feed, which are all placed upon 
one shaft, so that the Machine is not liable 
to get out of order. Each stitch Is drawn 
tightly into the fabric and finished as it is 
made. The Family Machines are provided 
with the very best attachments for Hem- 
ming, Felling, Tucking, Cording, Quilting, 
Binding, Braiding &c., and are without a 
rival for ease of management, beauty and 
strength of work, and elegance of finish. 
The A. B. and C Machines, with wheel 
feed, are used for manufacturing Boots. 
Shoes, Gloves and all kinds of Clothing, 
and have no superior for these purposes. 
They have only to be tried to be approved. 

"Levi Stahl, dealer in Spruce and 
Hemlock Lumber, Rockwood, Fulton Co., 
N. Y., publishes a card on page 240. In 
addition to a general assortment of Lum- 
ber, which he is' prepared to sell cheap, he 
manufactures Pump and Water Logs of 
large size. The work is done by machine- 
ry and is all warranted. He will fill all or- 
ders at short notice.

R. KINGSLBY, 

Has discovered a perfect cure for Cancers without the use of the knife. Thousands of 
cases cured can testify to the efficacy of this plan of treatment. This preparation will 
destroy the specific nature of most Cancers in from ten to sixty minutes. Even in those 
large Cancerous affections of the breast, from virhich so many females die annually, my 
specific is equally as effectual as in those smaller surface Cancers. Ninety-nine out of a 
hundred of all those jsersons who have died from Cancer, could easily have been cured. 
Cancer has been considered from time immemorial the greatest scourge of the human 
race ; but the time will come when a,\\ shall see that it is as remediable as any other dis- 
ease. At the same time remedies are given to purify the blood and fortify the system 
against a renewed attack. In all cases, if the Cancer is not too far advanced, a perfect 
cure is warranted, or no charge. 

Most persons are greatly deceived in regard to the first symptoms and appearance of 
Cancer, considering it very painful from the commencement. This is a sad mistake, 
(causing the death of thousands,) there being but little or no pain until the Cancer is far 
advanced. The only symptoms for months, and in some cases even for years, is occa- 
sionally either a stinging, itching, smarting, burning, creeping or shooting sensation, 
and in some cases not even any of these. Nearly all of those kernels or lumps that occur 
in the female breast, and also those unnatural appearances in the form of crusts or warty 
excrescence, which appear in either sex on the face, lips, nose, eye lids, or any other part 
of the surface, are cancers. Cancer is very easily cured in its early stage, consequently 
it is of the very greatest importance that all thus afflicted should have immediate treat- 
ment ; as thousands of very valuable lives have been lost from pure neglect, having been 
misguided by physicians having no knowledge of the disease, who, by calling it Scrofula. 
Erysipelas, Salt Rheum or some other non-terrifying disease, lull this unfortunate cla^-r 
in the cradle of ignorance, until upon the very verge of death, when, to hide such ignLi- 
ance, the physician tells the patient that it has finally turned to Cancer, and cannot be 
cured. There is no such thing as turning to Cancer. Whatever ends in Cancer, began 
in Cancer. Be no longer deceived. If you have the slightest suspicion of trouble, seek 
immediate relief and tnereby preserve life. 

Consumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma, Heart Disease, Dyspepsia, Liver Com- 
plaint, Pits, St. Vitus' Dance, Neuralgia, Scald Head, Piles, Tape Worms, or Worms 
of any kind, all Diseases of the Skin, Pimples, Scrofula or King's Evil, Fever Sores, 
Spinal Diseases, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Diabetes, Kidney Diseases, Gravel, and 
all Diseases peculiar to Males or Females, successfully treated. 

Warts, Corns, Bunions, Moles, Wens, Birth-Marks, I'umors &c., removed. Especial 
attention given to the treatment of Crooked Feet, Legs, Arms, Spine, Neck, and all other 
deformities. Cross Eyes straightened, Hare-Lips cured by an entirely new plan of oper-

ples. All Diseases of the Eye and Ear treated with very great success. 

Especial attention given to the treatment of all diseases originating from the errors of 
misguided Youth. 

Patients from a distance, except in Surgical and Cancer cases, by sending a full des- 
cription of their symptoms, can have medicines sent by MaO or Express, and be treated 
at home. 

All letters promptly answered, and medicines ordered, immediately forwarded. 

The Doctor is a graduate with an experience of over fourteen years in the practice of

S. Botsford, editor and publisher, whose 
advertisement appears on page 280, is a 
newspaper of local, general and political 
information, and worthy of the patronage 
it receives. Its circulation, 1,000 copies 
weekly, makes it an object of interest to 
advertisers, the advantages of which they 
should not be slow to comprehend. All

S. P. Hayes, manufacturer of Drain 
Tile, Oppenheim, N. Y., publishes a card 
on page 272. By referring to the 9ard, per- 
sons will ascertain the size and price, while 
the quality is such as to recommend the 
use of these tile in all- cases where Drain 
Tile can be used to advantage. Mr. Hayes 
will fill all orders at short notice, and we 
are confident that no investment of this 
kind will pay better than if invested in the 
Tile made by Mr. Hayes. Give him a call. 

Tlie Buckeye Mo-wing and 
lieaplng- Machine.— When the great 
U. S. Trial of Mowers and Keapers was held 
at Auburn in 1857, this admirable machine, 
which had just been brought out, surprised 
every body by its novelty and many excel- 
lencies, and won the highest awards. At 
that time the valuable patents under which 
it was built were secured for several States 
by the enterprising firm which now con- 
tinues its manufacture, Adriance, Piatt & 
Co. At the second great trial of Mowers 
and Reapers, made by the N. Y. State Agri- 
cultural Society in 1868, the Buckeye again 
carried off the highest honors, showing 
that in the years' intervening it had not 
gone backward in the race for superiority, 
livery new suggestion is thoroughly 
weighed, improvements only are adopted. 
The verdict of the people is nearly as unani- 
mous as that of the learned and practical 
committees who made these awards, for its 
sales far exceed those of any other ma- 
chine in the sections supplied by Adriance, 
Piatt & Co. Jn fact they increase so fait, 
that the demand is almost always in ex- 
cess of the supply. The Self-Raking At- 
tachment on the Buckeye Machine has met 
with a success corresponding to that of the 
Mower, and has surpassed all others in the 
perfection of its operation. One great 
secret of the success of Adriance Piatt & 
Co., as manufacturers, has been in the con- 
scientious manner in which they have 
built, their machines, and the great dura- 
bility of the Buckeye machine has been 
largely due to the excellence of the mate- 
rial used and the mechanical perfection of 
the workmanship. See advertisement on 
Map. 

Dr. H. Gilbert, Fultonville, N. Y., 
advertises on page 313. He makes a spe- 
cialty of treating all diseases of the throat 
and lungs by inhalation. By this method 
of treatment, medicines are applied direct- 
ly to the diseased parts and produce an 
immediate effect. Patients are not obliged 
to experiment for months before finding 
out whether they are benefited or not. 
This treatment certainly looks reasonable. 
Let the afilicted give heed. 



The Equitable Life Assurance 

Society.— The time has long since passed 
that popular opinion was averse to the 
principal of Life Insurance. It has often 
been demonstrated that Life Insurance may 
be a " Life Preserver " as well. How of- 
ten has the convalescent invalid expressed 
it as his belief that the satisfaction he ex- 
perienced in knowing that through his 
Life Insurance Policy, his family would be 
substantially provided for in case of his 
death, relieved the mind from many of the 
troubled thoughts that would naturally 
find place in the brain of a kind and loving 
husband or father, who through negligence 
had omitted to provide for his loved ones 
in case of his decease, and this freedom 
from trouble on their future financial ac- 
count, was the main spring to his recovery. 
Cases like this are numerous, and to-day 
no thoughtful or prudent man of sound 
health, and having a family to provide for, 
is wise if he longer neglects to provide for 
them in this way. It is believed among 
the many companies, none can offer in- 
ducements superior to the "Equitable." 
This company is officered by experienced 
and well known financiers and business 
men. Cyrus Stewart of Utica is General 
Agent, with a Branch Office at Qloversville, 
under the management of Mr. Edward 
Ward. The business of this Agency amounts 
to the enormous sum of $1,000,000 annu- 
ally. Patrons will find these gentlemen 
courteous and always ready to serve them 
on the most liberal terms, and no company 
can offer better inducements to Affenis. 
See advertisement, colored page 197. 

D. C. VanCamp, proprietor of Live- 
ry Stable, Fort Plain, N. Y., advertises on 
page 288. Mr. Van Camp keeps good 
horses and carriages, and any one having 
occasion to patronize a Livery, will not do 
better than to call on him. His charges 
are always reasonable. Mr. Van Camp 
also advertises the famous trotting Stallion 
North Star, whose good points are too well 
known to need any recommendation from 
us. Let those interested read the adver- 
ment and then call and see for themselves. 

^he CrloversTllle Intelligencer, 

published by Geo. M. Thompson, was first 
issued in 1867, since which time it has 
steadily gained in public favor and in- 
fluence. Circulating, as it does, exten- 
sively in the surrounding country, business 
men in the vicinity and elsewhere will 
find its columns a profitable medium for 
advertising. People wishing bills, circu-

anything in the line of Job Printing, will 
find Mr. Thompson ever ready to accom-

His experience and knowledge of his trade

pedition and cheapness, with beauty and 
fine finish together, is to be taken into con- 
sideration. 




Successors to Bramer & Pierce, Fabius, N. Y. 



This popular Mower has been in use for the past six Beasons, and is, therefore, no new untried. 
Machine, nut one that has been practically tested and perfected, and is a perfectly reliable first 
class Mower, as hundreds who have them in use will testify. We claim for this Mower superiority 
over most others in the followinc; points : — 

It is the lightest draft of any Machine made, average draft in the heaviest grass being only 175 
pounds. It is simple, compact, neat and durable ; no bearing down on the horses necks, no side 
draft, has an easy riding seat, is the easiest and most convenient Machine to manage in the 
market. Iron frame, two driving wheels, planetary gearing, entirely enclosed and protected from 
dirt or grass, flexible folding cutting apparatus, closely guarded, is made of the best material and 
jn the best possible manner, and is fully warranted. 

This Mower was built for five vcars by Brambr & Pibkce, at Fabius, N. T., who in January, 
1869, moved their Works to LITTDLB FALLS, and associated with themselves some of the most 
reliable business men of the place, incorporating a Stock Company, known as the WARRIOR 
MC'WER CO., with a large capital. The Company refer with pride to the record made by the 
Young Warrior the past season, and hereby pledge themselvee to sustain, and if possible, 
increase the reputation it has already attained by a judicious use of such improvements as would 
seem to make it better or more convenient, and by keeping the workmanship and material used iu 
its construction fully up to the present high standard. 

The YOUNG WARRIOR will be offered for sale in the Counties of Fulton and Montgomery the 
coming season, and we would respectfully ask those wishing to buy Mowers to give it a trial. 

Send orders for Machines or Circulars to the WARRIOR MOWER CO.

Globe Mutual lilfe Insurance 

Costspany. — It is with the greatest plea- 
sure that we call attention to the advertise- 
ment, inside first cover. The institu- 
tion there represented is, we are satisfied 
from Dersonal inspection, possessed of 
every s'ubstantial advantage which is pre- 
■ seated by any company, and particularly 
of one which is not universally possessed, 
that of the most judicious and economical 
management. This, after all, is perhaps the 
, most important merit which a company 
can possess, and this we conceive the Globe 
to be most certainly assured of, from the 
character of its organic structure, and of 
the well and widely known men who con- 
stitute the board of management, and the 
features in its charter to which we allude, 
are calculated to secure a continuance of 
the same careful and skillful control which 
has so rapidly pushed it forward into the 
foremost rank of life companies in America. 
We take it for granted that the reader 
approves of life insurance, and if not al- 
ready insured, designs at some time to 
effect an insurance upon his life. If rich 
he will do so for aru investment; for men 
of wealth have learned that it pays, and 
that while it pays, it surely protects against 
those reverses and misfortunes from which 
even they are not exempt. The poor and 
those of moderate means, will insure be- 
cause it is the only way in which they can 
secure a fortune or a support to their loved 
dependent families, if death comes before 
they have had time to accumulate one. 

We cheerfully commend the Globe to the 
insuring community. It has for its presi- 
dent one of the fathers of life insurance in 
America, the founder of the company first 
chartered in the State of New York, and 
the author of the most beneficent feature 
of insurance— the non-forfeiture system. 
The Globe was the first company to apply 
this most just condition to all its policies. 
Into the hands of such men, it would be 
judged, we might safely trust our interests, 
and experience has demonstrated that it is

By referring to his descriptive list it will 
be pi'en that Mr. Rose makes a great varie-

being suited. He re-cuts files of all kinds, 



Important Knowledge. — As mu- 
sic is now an indispensable necessity in 
every household, any reliable information 
is valuable as to the best place to buy mu- 
sical instruments. We have been acquaint- 
ed for years personally with the firm of 
Redington & Howe, and have known of 
their business facilities. We know that no 
House between New York and Chicago can 
compete with them successfully, as their 
facilities are unequaled. In addition to 
the immense capital at their control, they 
have special contracts with several leading 
first-class manufacturers, whereby they buy 
cheaper than any other dealers in the Uni- 
ted States anywhere. Their immense trade 
requires only a small profit on each one of 
their many transactions to ensure them a 
handsome income. Their terms are most 
hiphly liberal. And another important 
consideration is that their treatment of 
their customers is perfectly honorable, a 
very important matter in the purchase of 
such a complicated aff'air as a musical in- 
strument. Their recommendation of in- 
struments can be depended on implicitly. — 
This we know from an extensive acquaint- 
ance among hundreds to whom they have 
sold instruments. We advise our readers 
to give them a call, or certainly to write to 
them before deciding on the purchase of a 
Piano Forte, Organ or Melodeon, or any 
musical merchandise. Seecard on Co. Map.

Tbe Reynold's Steel Temper- 
ing "Works, Reynolds, Barber & Co., 
Proprietors, at Auburn, are largely engaged 
in the manufacture of Reaper and Mower 
Knives, Plane Irons, Chisels &c. The 
process by which they temper steel is a pe- 
culiar one, and as patented by Mr. Rey- 
nolds, is the result of over forty years 
labor. This gentleman always worked on 
the plan that tempering steel was simply 
changing it from a Jlbrous to a granular 
state. He certainly has succeeded in pro- 
ducing a finer granulation (temper) than 
has ever before been produced. Messrs. 
Reynolds, Barber & Co., control the patents 
for these processes, and are applying them 
Buccessfully in all their manufactures. — 
Their establishment is capable of turning 
out an immense amount of work, yet their 
orders are now, and have been for some 
months, accumulating far in advance of 
their present ability to supply ; a circum- 
stance which they will not long allow to be 
the case. We predict that the time is not 
far distant when all Mower and Reaper 
Factories and farmers will use their im- 
proved sections. See their advertisement

THE STATES, TEEIB SETTLEMENT, ETC. 27 

JV£J'S^:;i.S£^A. was settled by emigrants from the Northern and 
Western States, and was formed out of a part of the territory ceded by 
France, April 30, 1803. Attempts to organize it were made in 1844 and 
1S48, but it was not accomplished until May 30, 1854. Area 75,955 square 
miles, or 44,796,160 acres. Population 28,841, besides a few roving tribes 
of Indians. A Convention adopted a State Constitution February 9, 1866, 
which was submitted to the people on the 23d of June, and adopted by a 
vote of 8,938 for, to 3,838 against, and State officers were elected. A bill 
was passed by Congress, July 27th, admitting the State, but the President 
withheld his signature. In February, 1867, Congress passed an act im- 
posing certain conditions to admission, which were promptly accepted, and 
the territory became a State. It is an agricultural region, its prairies af- 
fording boundless pasture lands. 

JVIiJY;;L^A. was organized as a Territory March 2, 1861. Its name 
signifies snowy, and is derived from the Spanish word niem (snow.) It 
comprises 81,539 square miles, or 52,184,960 acres, Ijang mostly within the 
C-reat Basin of the Pacific coast. Congress, at its session in 1864, passed 
an act which was approved March 21, to enable the people of the Terri- 
tory to form a Constitution and State Government, in pursuance of which 
a Government was organized and the Territory admitted as a State by 
Proclamation of the President, October 31, 1864. At the time of its or- 
ganization the Territory possessed a population of 6,857 white settlers. 
The development of her mineral resources was rapid and almost without 
parallel, and attracted a constant stream of immigration to the Territory. 
As the population has not been subject to the fluctuations from which 
other Territories have suffered, the growth of Nevada has been rapid and 
steady. At the general convention election of 1863, 10,934 votes were cast. 
During 1864 great accessions to the population were made. It is probably 
the richest State in the Union in respect to mineral resources. No region 
in the world is richer in argentiferous leads. It also contains an immense 
basin of salt, five miles square. Quartz mills are a very important feature 
in mining operations. The State is barren for agricultural purposes, and 
is remarkably healthy. 

J^'':EW MAMTSHI^B was settled at Dover, in 1628, by English 
Puritans, and continued under the jurisdiction of Massachusetts until

June 21, 1788; its State Constitution was framed January 5, 1776, and 
amended in 1784 and 1792. Area 9,280 square miles, or 5,939,200 acres.

was surrendered to the Crown in 1702. It was one of the original thirteen 
States, adopted a State Constitution July 2, 1776, and ratified the United 
States Constitution December 18, 1787. Area 8,820 square miles, or 5-, 
824,800 acres. Population in 1860, 672,035. It is a grain and fruit grow- 
ing region, its orchard and market products being relatively greater than 
those of any other State. A residence of one year in the State gives the 
right to vote, except to paupers, &c.

O'RJEGOJV, although it had previously been seen by various naviga- 
tors, was first taken possession of by Capt. Eobert Gray, who entered the 
mouth of its principal river May 7, 1792, naming it after his vessel, the 
Columbia, of Boston. Exploring expeditions soon followed, and fur com- 
panies sent their trappers and traders into the region. In 1811 a trading 
post was established at the mouth of the Columbia river by the American 
Fur Company, who named it Astoria. For some time a Provisional Ter- 
ritorial Government existed, but the boundary remained unsettled until 
the treaty with Great Britain in 1846, when the 49th parallel was adopted. 
It was formally organized as a Territory August 14, 1848 ; was divided 
March 2, 1853, on the 46tli parallel, the northern portion being called 
Washington and the southern Oregon. November 9, 1857, a State Con-

THE TERRITORIES, 

THEIR BOUNDAEIES, AREA, PHYSICAL FEATURES, ETC. 



^I^^SjSIiIj, our new territory, recently purchased of Russia, compre- 
hends all the north-west coast on the Pacific, and the adjacent islands north 
of the parallel of 50 degrees 40 minutes north, and the portion of the main- 
land west of the meridian (about 140° west) of Mount St. Elias. The area 
is computed at 481,276 square miles. The climate, although warmer than 
in the same latitude on the eastern coast, is too rigorous to admit of suc- 
cessful agricultural operations, and the chief value of the country and ad- 
jacent seas is derived from their fisheries and hunting grounds. The south- 
ern and central portions are mountainous ; the northern portion along the 
Arctic ocean is quite flat, nowhere rising more than fifteen or twenty feet 
above the sea. The population is estimated at about 80,000, mostly Esqui- 
meaux. 

^^JZOJVA was organized by the Thirty-Seventh Congress, in the win- 
ter of 1863, out of the western half of New Slexico, the boundary between 
the two Territories being the 109th meridian (32d west from Washington,) 
and includes the greater portions of the valleys of Colorado and Gila, 
which two rivers drain its entire surface, with parts of Utah, New Mexico 
and Nevada, and yet convey, it is reported, a less volume of water to the 
sea than the Hudson at Albany. The fertile Messilla Valley was left with 
New Mexico. The Territory forms a block nearly square, and contains 
120,141 square miles, or 80,730,240 acres. Its white population is probably 
considerably less than 10,000. For agricultural purposes it is probably 
the most worthless on the Continent, owing to the absence of rains, but it 
is reputed to abound in silver mines. 

^^Z6'^^:f><9 was organised March 2, 1861, from parts of Kansas, 
Nebraska and Utah, and is situated on each side of the Rocky Mountains, 
between latitude 37° and 41°, and longitude 25^" and 32"^ west from Wash- 
ington. Area 104,500 square miles, or 66,880,000 acres. Population 50,- 
OOU, besides numerous tribes of Indians. By an enabling act passed March 
21, 1864, the people of the Territory were authorized to frame a State Con- 
stitution and organize a State Government, and a Convention accordingly 
met in 1865, and on the 12th of August adopted a Constitution, which was 
submitted to and adopted by the people September 5, and State officers 
elected November 14. A bill to admit the Territory as a State passed 
Congress, but was vetoed May 25, 1866. It is said to be a superior graz- 
ing and cattle producing region, with a healthy elimate and rich soil. 
An extensive coal bed, and also gold, iron and other minerals abound.

session, in the winter of 1863. Its name means 'Bead of the Mountains,' 
and it embraces the whole breadth of the Rocky Mountain region, and has 
within its bounds the head waters of nearly all the great rivers that flow 
down its either slope, but the greater portion lies east of the mountains. 
Its southern boundary is the 41st, its northern the 46th parallel of latitude. 
It extends from the 104th meridian on the east to the 110th on the west. 
Area 826,373 square miles, or 308,870,730 acres. For agricultural purposes 
it is comparatively worthless, but abounds in gold and other valuable 
mines. 

Ji'WJVTAJ^A. was settled by emigrants from the Northern and West- 
ern States. Organized in 1864, with the following boundaries: Com-

formed by its intersection with the 34th degree W. from Washington ; 
thence due south along said 34th degree of longitude to its intersection 
with the 44th degree and 30 minutes of N. L. ; thence due west along said 
44th degree and 30 minutes of N. L. to a point formed by its intersection 
with the crest of the Rocky Mountains ; thence following the crest of the 
Rocky Mountains northward till its intersection with the Bitter Root 
Mountains ; thence northward along the crest of said Bitter Root Moun- 
tains to its intersection with the 39th degree of longitude W. from Wash- 
ington; thence along said 39th degree of longitude northward to the 
boundary line of the British possessions; thence eastward along said 
boundary to the 37th degree of longitude W. from Washington ; thence 
southward along said 37th degree to the place of beginning. This makes 
it the northermost Territory next the States east of the Missouri Valley. It 
is a good mining and agricultural region. The total population is put 
down at 15,833. Large accessions have been made since the census was 
taken. 

JV^yy JiCJEJXICO was formed from a part of the territory ceded to 
the United States by Mexico, by the treaty of Guadaloupe Hidalgo, Feb- 
ruary 3, 1848, and was organized into a Territory September 9, 1850. — 
Area 131,301 square miles, or 77,568,640 acres. Population 83,000, besides 
large tribes of warlike Indians. The principal resource of the country is 
its minerals. 

ZTTAS^^^ settled by the Mormons, and was formed from a part of 
the territory ceded to the United States by Mexico, by the treaty of Guada- 
loupe Hidalgo, February 3, 1848, and was organized into a Territory, Sep- 
tember 9, 1850. Area, 106,383 square miles, or 68,084,480 acres. Popula- 
ton, 40,373, of whom 39 were slaves. Brine, sulphureous and chalybeate 
springs abound; limestone, granite, sandstone and marble are found in 
large quantities ; iron is abundant, and gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc 
have been found. Not one-fiftieth part of the soil is fit for tillage, but on 
that which is, abundant crops of grain and considerable cotton are raised. 
A Convention was held at Great Salt Lake City, January 23, 1863, and a 
State Constitution formed, but it has not been acted on by Congress. 

WA.SHIJVGTOjyy^^^ settled by emigrants from the Northern and 
Western States, and was organized into a Territory, March 3, 1853, from the 
northern portion of Oregon, to which was added another portion from the

eastern part when the latter Territor7 was admitted as a State, February 
14, 1859. Area 69,994 square miles, or 48,636,800 acres. Population 
11,168, besides numerous tribes of Indians. 

WTOMIJVG was organized in July 1868. It lies between the 27th and 
84th meridians of longitude west from Washington, and between the 
41st and 45th parallels of latitude. The Territory is rich in mineral wealth, 
having large quantities of iron, coal, gypsum and building stone, besides 
vast quantities of gold, silver and copper. Salt springs of great value are 
found within its limits. The western portion of the Territory embraces 
what is generally known as the " Sweet Water Mines." The climate is 
healthy, and the Territory is rapidly filling up with an enterprising and 
hardy population. The act of Congress organizing the Territory, provides 
that " There shall be no denial of the elective franchise or any other right, 
on account of color or race, and all persons shall be equal before the law."

CANCELLATION. 

In all cases where an adhesive stamp is 
used for denoting the stamp duty upon an 
instrument, the person using or affixing the 
same must write or imprint thereunon in 
ink the initials of his name, and the date 
(the year, month, and day) on which the 
same is attached or used. Each stamp 
should be separately cancelled. When 
stamps are printed upon checks, &c., so 
that in filling up the instrument, the face of 
the stamp is and must necessarily be writ- 
ten across, no other cancellation will be re- 
quired. 

All cancellation must be distinct and legi- 
ble, and except in the case of proprietary 
stamps from private dies, no method of 
cancellation which differs from that above 
described can be recognized as legal and 
sufficient. 

PENALTIES. 

A penalty of fifty dollars is imposed upon 
every person who makes, signs, or issues, 
or Vi'ho causes to be made, signed, or issu- 
ed, any paper of any kind or description 
whatever, or who accepts, negotiates, or 
pays, or causes to be accepted, negotiated, 
or paid, any bill of exchange, dratt, or or- 
der, or promissory note, for the payment of 
money,, without the same being duly stamp- 
ed, or having thereupon an adhesive stamp 
for denoting the tax chargeable thereon, 
cancelled in the manner required by law, 
with intent to evade the provisions of the 
revenue act. 

A penalty of two hundred dollars is im- 
posed upon every person who pays, nego- 
tiates, or oft'ers in payment, or receives or 
takes in payment, any bill of exchange or 
order for the payment of any sum of money 
drawn or purporting to be drawn in a for- 
eign country, but payable in the United 
States, until the proper stamp has been af- 
fixed thereto.- 

A penalty of fifty dollars is imposed upon 
every person who fraudulently makes use 
of an adhesive stamp to denote the duty re- 
quired by the revenue act, without eflectn- 
ally cancelling and obliterating the same in 
the manner required by law. 

Attention is particularly called to the fol- 
lowing extract from section 155, of the act 
of June 30, 1864, as amended by the act of 
July 13, 1866 : 

"If any person shall wilfnlly remove or 
cause to be removed, alter or cause to be al- 
tered, the cancelling or defacing marks on 
any adhesive stamp, with intent to use the 
same, or to cause the use of the same, after 
it shall have been used once, or shall know- 
ingly or wilfully sell or buy such washed 
or restored stamps, or offer the same for 
Bale, or give or expose the same to any per- 



38 



STAMP DUTIES. 



son for use, or knowingly use the same or 
prepare the same vcith intent for the fur- 
ther use thereof, or if any person shall 
Isnowingly and without lawful excuse (the 
proof whereof shall lie on the person accus- 
ed) have in his possession any washed, re- 
stored, or altered stamps, which have been 
removed from any vellum, parchment, pa- 
per, instrument or writing ; then, and in 
every such case, every person so offending, 
and every person knowingly and wilfully 
aiding, abetting, or assisting in committing 
any such offence as aforesaid, shall, on con- 
viction thereof, * * * be punished by 
a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars, 
or by imprisonment and confinement to 
hard'labor not exceeding five years, or both, 
at the discretion of the court." 

It is not lav;rful to record any instrument, 
document, or paper required by law to be 
stamped, or any copy thereof, unless a 
stamp or stamps of the proper amount have 
been aflixed and cancelled in the manner 
required by law ; and Buch instrument or 
copy and the record thereof are utterly null 
and' void, and cannot be used or admitted as 
evidence in any court until the defect has 
been cured as provided in section 158. 

All willful violations of the law should be 
reported to the United States District Attor- 
ney within and for the district where they 
are committed. 

GENERAL EE3IARKS. 

Revenue stamps may be used indiscrimi- 
nately upon any of the matters or tilings 
enntnerated in Schedule B, except proprie- 
tary and playing card stamps, for which a 
special use has oeen provided. 

Postage stamps cannot be used in pay- 
ment of the duty chargeable on instru- 
ments. 

The law does not designate which of the 
parties to 'an instrament shall furnish the 
necessary stamp, nor does the Commission- 
er of Internal Revenue assume to determine 
that it shall be supplied by one party rather 
than by another ; but if an instrument sub- 
ject to stamp duty is issued without having 
the necessary stamps affixed thereto, it can- 
not be recorded, or admitted, or used in ev- 
idence, in an y court, until a legal stamp or 
stamps, denoting the amount of tax, shall 
have been affixed as prescribed by law, and 
the person who thus issues it is liable to a 
penalty, if he omits the stamps with an in- 
tent to evade the provisions of the internal 
revenue act. 

The first act imposing a stamp tax upon 
certain specified instruments took eflect, so 
far as said tax is concerned, October 1, 1SG2. 
The impression which seems to prevail to 
some extent, that no stamps are required 
upon any instruments issued in the States 
lately in insurrection, prior to the surren- 
der, or prior to the establishment of collec- 
tion districts there, is erroneous. 

Instruments issued in those States since 
October 1, 1862. are subject to the same tax- 
es as similar ones issued at the same time 
in the other States. 

No stamp is necessary upon an instrument 
executed prior to October 1, 1862, to make 



it admissible in evidence, or to entitle it to 
record. 

Certificates of loan in which there shall 
appear any written or printed evidence of 
an amount of money to be paid on demand, 
or at a time designated, are subject to stamp 
duty as "promisso^-y notes." 

■\Vhen two or more persons j oin in the ex- 
ecution of an instrament, the stamp to which 
the instrument is liable under the law, may 
be aflixed and cancelled by either of them ; 
and "when more than one'signature is affix- 
ed to the same paper, one o"r more stamps 
may be affixed thereto, representing the 
whole amount of the stamp required for 
such signatures." 

No stamp is required on any warrant of 
attorney accompanying a bond or note, 
when such bond or note has aflixed thereto 
the stamp or stamps denoting the duty re- 
quired ; and, whenever any bond or note is 
secured by mortgage, but one stamp duty is 
required on such papers — such stamp duty 
being the highest rate required for such in- 
struments, or either of them. In such case 
a note or memorandum of the value or de- 
nomination of the stamp aflixed should be 
made upon the margin or in the acknowl- 
edgement of the instrument which is not 
stamped. 

Particular attention is called to the 
change in section 154, by striking out the 
words "or used;" the exemption thereun- 
der is thus restricted to documents, &c., 
issued by the oflicers therein hamed. Also 
to the changes in sections 152 and 158, by 
inserting the words "and cancelled in the 
manner requu-ed by law." 

The acceptor or acceptors of any bill of 
exchange, or order for the payment of any 
sum of money, drawn or purporting to be 
drawn in any foreign country, but payable 
in the United States, must, before paying or 
accepting the same, place thereupon a 
stamp indicating the duty. 

It is only upon conveyances of realty sold 
that conveyance stamps are necessary. A 
deed of real estate made without valuable 
consideration need not be stamped as a 
conve.yance ; but if it contains covenants, 
such, for instance, as a co\'euant to warrant 
and defend the title, it should be stamped 
as an agreement or contract. 

Wheii a deed purporting to be a convey- 
ance of realty sold, and stamped according- 
ly, is inoperative, a deed of confirmation, 
made simply to cure the defect, requires no 
stamp. In such case, the second dt^ed 
should contain a recital of the facts, and 
should show the reasons for its execution. 

Partition deeds between tenants in com- 
mon, need not be stamped as conveyances, 
inasmuch as there is no sale of realty, but 
merely a marking out, or a defining, " of the 
boundaries of the part belonging to each ; 
but where money or other valualne cousid- 
ei-ation is paid by one co-tenant to another 
for equality of partition, there is a sale to 
the extent of such consideration, and the 
conveyance, by the pany receiving it, 
should be stamped accordingly. 

A conveyance of lands sold for unpaid

nicipal corporation in the discharge of their 
strictly official duties, is exempt from 
stamp lax. 

A conveyance of realty sold, subject to a 
mortgage, should be stamped according to 
the consideration, or the value of the prop- 
erty unencumbered. The consideration in 
such case is to be found by adding the 
amount paid for the equity of redeniption 
to the mortgage debt. The fact that one 
part of the consideration is paid to the 
mortgagor and the other part to the mort- 
gagee does not change the liability of the 
conveyance. 

The stamp tax upon a mortgage is based 
upon the amount it is given to secure. The 
fact that the value of the property mortgag- 
ed is less than that amount, and that conse- 
quently the security is only partial, does 
not change the liability of the instrument. 
When, therefore, a second mortgage is giv- 
en to secure the payment of a sum of mon- 
ey partially secured by a prior mortgage up- 
on other property, or when two mortgages 
upon separate property are given at the 
same time to secure the payment of the 
8^1 me sum, each should be stamped as 
though it were the only one. 

A mortgage given to secure a surety from 
loss, or given for any purpose whatever, 
other than as security for the payment of a 
definite and certain sum of money, is taxa- 
able only as an agreement or contract. 

The stamp duty upon a lease, agreement, 
memorandum, or contract for the hire, use, 
or rent of any land, tenement, or portion 
thereof, is based upon the annual rent or 
rental value of the property leased, and the 
duty is the same whether the lease be for 
one year, for a term of years, or for the 
fractional part of a year only. 

Upon every assignment or transfer of a 
mortgage, a stamp tax is required equal to 
that imposed upon a mortgage for the 
amount remaining unpaid ; this tax is re- 
quired upon every such transfer in writing, 
whether there is a sale of the mortgage or 
not ; but no stamp is necessary upon the 
endorsement of a negotiable instrument, 
even though the legal effect of such indorse- 
ment is to transfer a mortgage by which 
the instrument is secured. 

An assignment of a lease within the mean- 
ing and intent of Schedule B, is an assign- 
ment of the leasehold, or of some portion 
thereof, by the lessee, or by some person 
claiming by, from, or under him ; such an 
assignment as subrogates the assignee to 
the rights, or some portion of the rights, of 
the lessee, or of the person standing in his 
place. A transfer by the lessor of his part 
of a lease, neither giving nor purporting 
to give a claim to the leasehold, or to any 
part thereof, but simply a right to the rents, 
&c., is subject to stamp tax as a contract 
or agreement only. 

The stamp tax upon a fire insurance 
policy is based upon the premium. 

Deposit notes taken by a mutual fire in- 
surance company, not as payment of pre- 
mium nor as evidence of indebtedness 
therefor, but to be used simply as a basis 
upon which to make rateable assessments to 
meet the losses incurred by the company, 



should not be reckoned as premium in de- 
termining the amount of stamp taxes upon 
the policies. 

When a policy of insurance properly 
stamped has been issued and lost, no stamp 
is necessary upon another issued by the 
same company to the same party, coverin g 
the same property, time, &c., and designed 
simply to supply the loss. The second 
policy should recite the loss of the first. 

An instrument which operates as the re- 
newal of a jiolicy of insurance, is subject to 
the same stamp tax as the policy. 

When a policy of insurance is issued for 
a certain time, whether it be for one year 
only or for a term of years, a receipt for 
premium, or any other instrument which 
has the legal effect to continue the contract 
and extend its operation beyond that time, re- 
quires the same amount of revenue stamps 
as the policy itself; but such a receipt as 
is usually given for the payment of the 
monthly, quarterly, or annual premium, is 
not a renewal within the meaning of the 
statute. The payment simply prevents the 
policy from expiring, by reason of non-per- 
formance of its conditions : a receipt given 
for such a pajTneut requires a two-cent 
stamp, if the amount received exceeds 
twenty dollars, and a two-cent stamp only. 
When, however, the time of payment has 
passed, and a tender of the premium is not 
sufficient to bind the company, but a new 
policy or a new contract in some form, with 
the mutuality essential to every contract, 
becomes necessary between the insurer and 
the insured, the same amount of stamps 
should be used as that required upon the 
original policy. 

A permit issued by a life insurance com- 
pany changing the terms of a policy as to 
travel, resiaeiice, occupation, &c., should 
be stamped as a contractor agreement. 

A bill single or a bill obligatory, i. e., an 
instrument in the form of a promissory 
note, under seal, is subject to stamp duty 
as vmtten or printed evidence of an amount 
of money to be paid on demand or at a 
time designated, at the rate of five cents 
for each one hnndred dollars or fractional 
part thereof. 

A waiver of protest, or of demand and 
notice, written upon negotiable paper and 
signed by the indorser, is an agreement, 
and requires a flve-cent stamp. 

A stamp duty of twenty-five cents is im- 
posed upon the "protest of every note, bill 
of exchange, check or draft," and upon 
every marine protest. If several notes, 
bills of exchange, drafts, &c., are protest- 
ed at the same time and all attached to one 
and the same certificate, stamps should be 
affixed to the amount of twenty-five cents 
for each note, bill, draft, &c., thus protest- 
ed. 

When, as is gegCTally the case, the cap- 
tion to a depositroS^contains other certifi- 
cates in addition to the jurat to the affida- 
vit of the deponent, such as a certificate 
that the parties were or were not notified, 
that they did or did not appear, that they 
did or did not object, &c., it is subject to 
a stamp duty of five cents. 

When an attested copy of a writ or other 



40 



STAMP DUTIES. 



proceBS is used by a sheriff or other person 
in making personal service, or in attaching 
property, a five-cent stamp should be affix- 
ed to the certificate of attestation. 

A marriage certificate issued by the offi- 
ciating clergyman, or magistrate, to be re- 
turned to any officer of a State, county, city, 
tov^n, or other municipal corporation, to 
constitute part of a public record, requires 
no stamp ; but if it is to be retained by 
the parties, a five-cent stamp should be af- 
fixed. 

The stamp tax upon a bill of sale, by 
which any ship or vessel, or any part there- 
of, is conveyed to or vested in any other 
person or persons, is at the same rate as 
that imposed upon conveyances of realty 
sold; a bill of sale of any other personal 
property should be stamped as a contract 
or agreement. 

An assignment of real or personal prop- 
erty, or of both, forthe benefit of creditors, 
should be stamped as an agreement or con- 
tract. 

Written or printed assignments of agree- 
ments, bonds, notes not negotiable, and 
of all other instruments the assignments 
of which are not particularly specified in 
the foregoing schedule, should be stamped 
as agreements. 

No stamp is necessary upon the registry 
of a judgment, even though the registry is 
such in its legal effect as to create a lien 
which operates as a mortgage upon the 
property of the judgment debtor. 

When a "power of attorney or proxy for 
voting at any election for officers of any 
incorporated company or society, except 
religious, charitable, or literary societies, 
or public cemeteries," is signed by sever- 
al stockholders, owning separate and dis- 
tinct shares, it is, in its legal effect, the 
separate instrument of each, and requires 
stamps to the amount of ten cents for each 
and every signature; one or more stamps 
may be used representing the whole amount 
required. 



A notice from landlord to tenant to 
quit possession of premises requires no 
stamp. 

A stamp tax is imposed upon every 
"manifest for custom-house entry or clear- 
ance of the cargo of any ship, vessel, or 
steamer for a foreign port." The amount 
of this tax in each case depends upon the 
registered tonnage of the vessel. 

If a vessel clears in ballast and has no 
cargo whatever, no stamp is necessary; 
but if she has any, however small the amount 
— a stamp should be used. 

A bond to convey real estate requires 
stamps to the amount of twenty-five cents. 

The stamp duty upon the probate of a 
will, or upon letters of administration, is 
based upon the sworn or declared value of 
all the estate and effects, real, personal, 
and mixed, undiminished by the debts of 
the estate for or in respect of which such 
probate or letters are applied for. 

When the property belonging to the es- 
tate of a person deceased, lies under dif- 
ferent jurisdictions and it becomes neces- 
sary to take out letters in two or more 
places, the letters should be stamped ac- 
cording to the value of all the property, real, 
personal, and mixed, for or in respect of 
which the particular letters in each case 
are issued. 

Letters ds bonis non should be stamped 
according to the amount of property re- 
maining to be administered upon thereun- 
der, regardless of the stamps upon the orig- 
inal letters. 

A mereco^ of an instrument is not sub- 
ject to stamp duty unless it is a certified 
one, in which case a five-ceut stamp should 
be affixed to the certificate of the person 
attesting it • but when the instrument is 
executed and issued in duplicate, triplicate, 
&c., as in the case of a lease of two or more 
parts, each part has the same legal effect as 
the other, and each should be stamped as 
an original.

RVLE8 FOR DETECTING COUNTERFEIT BANK NOTES. 



Infallible Rnles for Detecting; Counterfeit or 
Spurious Bank Notes. 



Rule let.— Examine the shading of the 
letters in title of Bank called lathbwork, 
which in genuine notes presents an even, 
straight, light and silky appearance, gen- 
erally so fine and smooth as to appear to be 
all in one solid, pale body. In the counter- 
feit the lines are coarse and irregular, and 
in many of the longer lines breaks will be 
perceived, thus presenting a very inferior 
finish in comparison to genuine work. 

2d. — Observe the dies, circles and ovals 
in the genuine; they are composed of a 
network of lines, which, by crossing each 
other at certain angles, produce an endless 
variety of figures ; see the one cent stamp 
ATTACHED. The fiuc line alone is the 
unit which enables yon to detect spurious 
work. In the counterfeit, the represented 
white lines are coarse, irregular, and cross 
each other in a confused, irregular manner, 
thus producing blurred and imperfect 
figures. 

3d.— Examine the form and features of 
all human figures on the note. In the gen- 
uine, the texture of the skin is represented 
by fine dots and lines intermixed. In the 
eyes, the pupil is distinctly visible, and the 
white clearly seen ; the nose, mouth and 
chin, well formed, natural and expressive ; 
the lips are slightly pouting, and the chin 
well thrown out ; and the delicate shading 
of the neck perfectly harmonizes with the 
rest of the figure. Observe the fingers and 
toes ; they should be clearly and accurately 
defined. The hair of the head should show 
the fine strands and present a natural ap- 
pearance. The folds of the drapery of hu- 
man figures should lay natural and present 
a fine, finished appearance. In the counter- 
feit the female figure does not bear the 
natural prominence in outlines ; observe, 
the eyes and shading surrounding does not 
present the lifelike appearance it should. 
The fingers and toes are not properly and 
proportionately defined ; the hair does not 
bear that soft and finished appearance as in 
the genuine. 

4tn. — Examine the imprint or engraver's 
names in the evenness and shape of the 



fine letters. Counterfeits never bear the 
imprint perfect. This rule should be strict- 
ly observed, as it is infallible in detecting 
counterfeits. 

5th. — In the genuine note the landscapes 
are well finished; trees and shrubs are 
neatly drawn ; the limbs well proportioned, 
and the foliage presenting a fine natural 
appearance ; clear sky is fonued of fine 
parallel lines, and when clouds or heavy 
skies appear, they cross each other, and 
bear a soft, smooth and natural appear- 
ance. The perspective, showing a view of 
the surrounding' country, is always clear 
and distinct. The small figures in the 
background are always plainly seen, and 
their outlines and general character re- 
cognized. Ships are well defined and the 
canvass has a clear texture ; railroad cars 
are very accurately delineated ; in examin- 
ing a train observe carefully the car most 
distant. In the coimterfeit the landscape 
is usually poorly executed ; the leaves of 
trees poorly and unnaturally defined. — 
The lines representing still water are 
scratchy rather than parallel, the sky is 
represented generally in like manner, and 
where rolling clouds are to be seen, the 
unnatural effect is obvious. Domestic 
animals are generally poorly executed, 
particularly the head and limbs ; the eyes 
are seldom clearly defined. Ships are 
poorly drawn, the texture of the canvass 
coarse and inferior in stj'le of workman- 
ship, thus giving an artificial appearance. 
Railroad cars are also poorly executed ; the 
car farthest from the eye is usually the 
most imperfect. The perspective is always 
imperfect, the figures in the background 
can seldom be recognized. 

(ith.— Bills altered from a smaller to a 
higher denomination, Civn readily be de- 
tected by a close observer, in consequence 
of the striking dift'erence between the parts 
which have been extracted and the rest of 
the note. This difl'erence is readily per- 
ceived in the lack of color, body and finish 
of the dye; we have seen bills where -the 
surrounding shading in altered dies was 



HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. 



45 



too dark, but from the back or fluiah of the 
white lines you have a sure test. Again 
observe particularly the vcords "Five" or 
" Ten Dollars " as the case may be, denot- 
ing the denomination of the note ; the 
parallel outlines and shading (if any) are 
coarse and imperfect. Alterations are fre- 
quently made Tby pasting a greater denomi- 
nation over a smaller,l)ut by holding the 
bill up to the light, the fraud will be per- 
ceived. Another method resorted to is to 
cut out the figures in the dies as well as 
the words one dollar, or the words two or 
three as the case may be, and with a sharp 
eraser, scrape down the ends and also the 
edges of the pieces to be inserted ; when 
the pieces thus jjrepared are affixed they 
are nardly perceivable ; but by passing 
the note through the hand, so as to feel 
the die both with the finger and thumb 
at the same time, the fraud will be de- 
tected by the stiffness of the outer 
edges, " occasioned by the gum or method 
adopted" in affixing the parts. The letter 
S should always be examined, as in many 
alterations it is pasted or stamped at the 
end of the word " dollar;" and even when 
stamped there, the carrying out of the out- 
lines for its shading will readily show the 
fraud. Bills of broken banks are frequent- 
ly altered by extracting the name of bank, 
state and town ; they may readily be de- 



tected by observing first the state, second 
the title or name of the bank, third the 
town or location. 

General Remarks in Eeferencb to 
CouNTERrEiTs.— The paper on which they 
are printed is generally of a very inferior 
quality, with less body, finish and tough- 
ness than bank note paper has. The ink 
generally lacks the rich luster of the gen- 
uine ; the red letters and figures are gen- 
erally imperfect, and the ink does not pre- 
sent the Vermillion hue as it should. The 
printing is generally inferior, usually ex- 
hibiting specks of white in the most promi- 
nent letters. The date and filling up, and 
the President's and Cashier's names are 
generally written by the same person, 
although in many instances they present 
a different appearance. There are bills in 
circulation bearing either genuine dies or 
vignettes ; but upon close examination 
you will be enabled to detect any spurious 
bill, whether counterfeit or altered, by the 
instructions here given, if persevered in for 
a short time. We beg to suggest, if time 
will admit, the learner should examine 
minutely every bill he receives. A pow- 
erful pocket magnifying glass, which can 
be purchased for from fifty cents to one dol- 
lar at any of the opticians, will greatly en- 
able you to see and comprehend the difler- 
ence between genuine and spurious work 



HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. 



What will my readers give to know how 
to get rich ? Now, I will not vouch that 
the following rules will enable every per- 
son who may read them to acquire wealth ; 
but this I will answer for, that if ever a 
man does grow rich by honest means, and 
retains his wealth for any length of time, 
he must practice upon the principles laid 
down in the following essay. The re- 
marks are not original with me, but I 
strongly commend tnem to the attention 
of every young man, at least as aflfording 
the true secret of success in attaining 
wealth. A single perusal of such an essay 
at an impressible moment, has sometimes 
a very wonderful efiect upon the disposi- 
tion and character. 

Fortune, they say, is a fickle dame — full 
of her freaks and caprices ; who blindly 
distributes her favors without the slightest 
discrimination. So inconstant, so waver- 
ing is she represented, that her most faith- 
ful votaries can place no reliance on her 
promises. Disappointment, they tell us, 
is the lot of those who make ofierings at 



her shrine. Now, all this is a vile slander 
upon the dear blind lady. 

Although wealth often appears the result 
of mere accident, or a fortunate concur- 
rence of favorable circumstances without 
any exertion of skill or foresight, yet any 
man of sound health and unimpaired mind 
may become wealthy, if he takes the prop- 
er steps. 

Foremost in the list of requisites are 
honesty and strict integrity in every trans- 
action of life. Let a man have the reputa- 
tion of being fair and upright in his deal- 
ings, and he will possess the confidence of 
all who know him. Without these qualities 
every other merit will prove unavailing. 
Ask concerning a man, " Is he active and 
capable?" Yes. "Industrious, temper- 
ate and regular in his habits ?"— Oh yes. 
"Is he honest? Is he trustworthy?" 
Why, as to that, I am sorry to say that he 
is not to be trusted ; he needs watcftiing ; 
he is a little tricky, and will take an undue 
advantage, if he can. "Then I will have 
nothing to do with him," will be the in

HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. 



variable reply. Why, then, is honesty the 
best policy ? Because, without it, you will 
get a bad name, and everybody will Bhun 
you. 

A character for knavery will prove an in- 
surmountable obstacle to success in al- 
most every undertaking. It will be found 
that the straight line is, in business, as in 
geometry, the shortest. In a word, it is 
almost impossible for a dishonest man to 
acquire wealth by a regular process of bus- 
iness, because be is shunned as a depreda- 
tor upon society. 

Needy men are apt to deviate from the 
rule of integrity, under the plea that ne- 
cessity knows no law ; they might as well 
add that it knows no shame. The course 
is suicidal, and by destroying all confidence, 
ever keeps them immured in poverty, 
although, they may possess every other 
quality for success in the world. 

Punctuality, which is said to be the soul 
of business, is another important element 
in the art of money getting. The man 
known to be scrupulously exact in the ful- 
fillment of his engagements, gains the 
confidence of all, and may command all 
the means he can use with advantage ; 
whereas, a man careless and regardless of 
his promises in money matters will have 
every purse closed against him. Therefore 
be prompt in your payments. 

Next, let us consider the advantages of 
a cautious circumspection in our inter- 
course with the world. Slowness of be- 
lief and a proper distrust are essential to 
success. The credulous and confiding are 
ever the dupes of knaves and impostors. 
Ask those who have lost their property 
how it happened, and you will find in 
most cases that it has been owing to mis- 
placed confidence. One has lost by en- 
dorsing, another by crediting, another 
by false representations ; all of which a 
little more foresight and a little more dis- 
trust would have prevented. In the af- 
fairs of this world men are not saved by 
faith, but by the want of it. 

Judge of "men by what they do, not by 
what they say. Believe in looks rather 
than words. Observe all their movements. 
Ascertain their motives and their ends. 
Notice what they say or do in their un- 
guarded moments, when under the influ- 
ence of excitement. The passions have 
been compared to tortures which force men 
to reveal their secrets. Before trusting a 
man, before putting it in his power to 
cause you a loss, possess yourself of every 
available information relative to him. 
Learn his history, his habits, inclinations 
and propensities ; his reputation for honor, 
industry, frugality and punctuality ; his 
prospects, resources, supports, advantages 
and disadvantages ; his intentions and mo- 
tives of action; who are his friends and 
enemies, and what are his good or bad qual- 
ities. You may learn a man's good qualities 
and advantages from his friends— his bad 
qualities and disadvantages from his ene- 
mies. Make due allowance for exatrgeration 
in boWi. Finally, examine carefully before 
engaging in anything, and act with energy 
afterwards. Have the hvmdred eyes of 



Argus beforehand, and the hundred hands 
of Briarius afterwards. 

Order and system in the management of 
business must not be neglected. Nothing 
contributes more to dispatch. Have .1 
place for everything and everything in 'ja 
place ; a time for everything, and ever;,'- 
thing in its time. Do first Wfeat presses 
most, and having determined what is to be 
done, and how it is to be done, lose no 
time in doing it. Without this method a'. i 
is hurry and confusion, little or nothing is 
accomplished, and business is attended to 
with neither pleasure nor profit. 

A polite, aflfable deportment is recom- 
mended. Agreeable manners contribute 
powerfully to a man's success. Take tv.'o 
men, possessing equal advantages in every 
other respect, but let one be gentlemanly, 
kind, obliging and conciliating in his man- 
ners ; the other harsh, rude and disobliging; 
and the one will become rich, while the 
other will starve. 

We are now to consider a very important 
principle in the business of money-getting, 
namely — Industry — oerseverin^ indefati- 
gable attention to business. Persevering 
diligence is the Philosopher's stone, which 
turns everything to gold. Constant, regu- 
lar, habitual and systematic application'" lo 
business, must in time, if properly directed, 
produce great results. It must lead to 
wealth, with the same certainty that pov- 
erty follows in the train of idleness and 
inattention. It has been truly remarked 
that he who follows his amusements in- 
stead of his business, will, in a short time, 
have no business to ifollow. 

The art of money-saving is an important 
part of the art of money-getting. Without 
frugality no one can become rich ; with it, 
few would be poor. Those who consume 
as fast as they produce, are on the road to 
ruin. As most of the poverty we meet 
with grows out of idleness and extrava- 
gance, so most large fortunes have been 
the result of habitual industry and frugali- 
ty. The practice of economy is as neces- 
sary in the expenditure of time as of 
money. They say if "we take care of the 
pence the pounds will take care of them- 
selves." So, if we take care of the 
minutes, the days will take care of them- 
selves. 

The acquisition of wealth demands as 
much self-denial, and as many sacrifices 
of present gratification, as the practice of 
virtue itself. Vice and poverty proceed, in 
some de,^ree, from the same sources, 
namely — the disposition to sacrifice the 
futiireto the present ; the inability to fore- 
go a small present pleasure for great future 
advantages. Men fail of fortune in this 
world, as they fail of happiness in the 
world to come, simply because they are un- 
willing to deny themselves momentary en- 
joyments for the sake of permanent luture 
happiness. 

Every large city is filled with persons, 
who, in order to support the appearance of 
wealth, constantly live beyond their in- 
come, and make up the deficiency by 
contracting debts which are never paid. 
Others, there are, the mere drones of so-

ciety, who pass their days in idleness, and 
subsist by pirating on the hives of the in- 
dustrious. Many who run a short-lived 
fr of splendid beggary, could they he 

^_^Dersuaded to adopt a system of rigid 
economy for a few years, might pass the 
remainder of their days in affluence. But 
no ! They must keep xip appearances, 
they must live like other folks. 

Their debts accumulate ; their credit 
fails; they are harassed by duns, and be- 
sieged by constables and sheriif. In this 
extremity, as a last resort, they submit to 
a shameful dependence, or engage in crim- 
inal practices which entail hopeless wretch- 
edness and infamy on themselves and 
families. 



Stick to the business in which yon n. re 
regularly employed. Let speculators make 
thousands in a year or a day ; mind your 
own regular trade, never turning from it 
to the right hand or to the left. If you are 
a merchant, a professional man, or a me- 
chanic, never buy lots or stocks, unless 
you have surplus money which you wish 
to invest. Your own business you under- 
stand as well as other men ; but other peo- 
ple's business you do not understand. 
Let your business be some one which is 
useful to the community. All such occu- 
pations possess the elements of profit in 
themselves. 



How to Secure the Public Lands, 

OR THE ENTRY OF THE SAME UNDER THE PRE-EMPTION AND HOMESTEAD 

LAWS. 



The following circular gives all necessary 
information as to the procedure necessai-y 
in purchasing and securing the public 
lauds : 

Depabtmbnt of the Inteeiob, ) 

Gbn'l Lakd Opfiob, July 19, 1865. ) 

Nnmeroxis questions having arisen as to 
the mode of procedure to purchase public 
lands, or acquire title to the same by bounty 
land locations, by pre-emptions or by home- 
stead, this circular is communicated for the 
Information of aU concerned. 

In order to acquire title to public lands 
the following steps must be taken : 

1. Application must be made to the Reg- 
ister of the district land office in which the 
land desired may be situated. 

A list of all the land offices in the United 
States is furnished by the Department, 
with the seats of the different offices, 
where it is the duty of the Register and 
Receiver to be in attendance, and give 
proper facilities and information to persons 
desirous of obtaining lands. 

The minimum price of ordinary public 
lands is $1,25 per acre. The even or re- 
served sections falling within railroad 
grants are increased to double the minimum 
price, being $2,50 per acre. 

Lands once offered at public sale, and not 
afterwards kept out of market by reserva- 
tion, or otherwise, so as to prevent free 
competition, may be entered or located. 

2. By the applicant filing with the Regis- 
ter his written application describing the 



tract, with its area ; the Register will then 
certify to the receiver whether the land is 
vacant, with its price ; and when found to 
be so, the applicant must pay that pri?.e 
per acre, or may locate the same with land 
warrant, and thereafter the Receiver will 
give him a " duplicate receipt," which he 
18 required to surrender previous to the 
delivery to him of the patent, which may 
be had either by application for it to tlie 
Register or to the General Land Office. 

3. If the tract has not been offered at 
public sale it is not liable to ordinary pri- 
vate entry, but may be secured by a party 
legally qualified, upon his compliance vvith 
the reqiiirements of the pre-emption hnvs 
of 4th September, 1841, and 3d March, 1843; 
and after such party shall have made .-ic- 
tual settlement for such a length of time 
as will show he designs it for his perma- 
nent home, and is acting in good faith, 
building a house and residing therein, he 
may proceed to the district land office, es- 
tablish his pre-emption claim according to 
law, by proving his actual residence and 
cultivation, and showing that he is other- 
wise within the purview of these acts. — 
Then he can enter the land at $1,25, either 
in cash or with bounty land warrant, unless 
the premises should be $2,50 acre lands. 
In that case the whole purchase-money can 
be paid in cash, or one-half in cash, the 
residue with a bounty land warrant. 

4. But if parties legally qualified desire 
to obtain title under the Homestead Act 
of 20th May, 1862, they can do so on com-

plying with the Department Circular, dated 
30th October, 1862. 

5. The law confines Homestead entries 
to surveyed lands; and although, in cer- 
tain States and Territories noted in the sub- 
joined list, pre-emptors may go on land be- 
fore survey, yet they can only establish their 
claim after return of survey, but must file 
their pre-emption declaration within three 
months after receipt of official plat, at the 
local land-office where the settlement was 
made before survey. Where, however, it 
was made after survey, the claimant must 
file within three months after date of set- 
tlement ; and where actual residence and 
cultivation have been long enough to show 



that the claimant has made the land his 
permanent home, he can establish his 
claim and pay for the same at any time 
before the date of the public sale of laMd^ 
within the range in which his settlement 
may fall. 

6. All unoffered surveyed lands not ac- 
quired under pre-emption, homestead, or 
otherwise, under express legal sanction, 
must be offered at public sale under the 
President's Proclamation, and struck ofi'to 
the highest bidder, as required by act of 
April 24, 1820.

in law. 

47. A railroad track through the streets is 
not a nuisance in law.

48. Ir an agreement upon which a party- 
relies bo oral only, it mu6t be proved by 
evidence. But if the contract be reduced 
to writing, it proves itself; and now no 
evidence whatever is receivable for the 
purpose of varying the contract or affecting 
Its obligations. The reasons are obvious. 
The law prefers written to oral evidence, 
from its greater precision and certainty, 
and because it is less open to fraud. And 
where parties have closed a negotiation 
and reduced the result to writing, it is pre- 
sumed that they have written all they in- 
tended to agree to, and therefore, that what 
is omitted was finally rejected by them.— 
[Parsons. 

49. Delivery of a husband's goods by a 
wife to her adulterer, he having knowledge 
that she has taken them without her hus- 
band's authority, is sufficient to sustain an 
indictment for larceny against the adul- 
terer. 

50. The fact that the insurer was not in- 
formed of the existence of impending liti- 
gation, affecting the premises insured, at 
the time the insurance was effected, does 
not vitiate the policy. 

51. The liability of an innkeeper is not 
confined to personal baggage, but extends 
to all the property of the guest that he con- 
sents to receive. 

52. When a minor executes a contract, 
and pays money, or delivers property on the

such money or property. 

53. When a person has, by legal inquisi- 
tion been found an habitual drunkard, he 
cannot, even in his sober intervals, make 
contracts to bind himself or his property, 
until the inquisition is removed. 

54. Any person dealing with the repre- 
sentative ol a deceased person, is presumed, 
in law, to be fully apprized of the extent of 
such representative's authority to act in 
behalf of such estate. 

55. In an action against a railroad com- 
pany, by a passenger, to recover damages 
for injuries sustained on the road, it is not 
compulsory upon the plaintiff' to prove ac- 
tual negligence in the defendants ; but it 
is obligatory on the part of the latter to 
prove that the injury was not owing to any 
ftuilt or negligence of theirs. 

5G. A guest is a competent witness, in an 
action between himself and an inn-keeper, 
to prove the character and value of lost 
personiil baggage. Money in a trunk, not 
exceeding tne amount reasonably required 
by the traveler to defray the expenses of 
the journey which he has undertaken, is a 
part of his baggage ; and in case of its loss, 
while at any inn, the plaintiff' may prove its 
amount by his own testimony. 

5T. The deed of a minor is not absolutely 
void. The court is authorized to judge, 
from the instrument, whether it is void or 
not, according to its terms being favorable 
or unfavorable to the interests of the minor. 



58. A m.arried woman can neither sue nor 
be sued on any contract made by her dur- 
ing her marriage, except in an action relat- 
ing to her individual property. The action 
must be commenced either by or against 
her husband. It is only when an action 
is brought on a contract made by her be- 
fore her marriage, that she is to be joined 
as a co-plaintiff^ or defendant, with her hus- 
band. 

59. Any contract made with a person ju- 
dicially declared a lunatic is void. 

60. Money paid voluntarily in any trans- 
action, with a knowledge of the facts, can- 
not be recovered. 

61. In all cases of special contract for ser- 
vices, except in the case of a minor, the 
plaintiff can recover only the amount stip- 
ulated in the contract. 

62. A wife is a competent witness Avith 
her husband, to prove the contents of a lost 
trunk, or when a party. 

6.3. A wife cannot be convicted of receiv- 
ing stolen goods when she received them 
oflier huslaand. 

64. Insurance against fire, by lightning or 
Otherwise, does not cover loss by lightning 
when there is no combustion. 

65. Failure to prove plea of justification, 
in a case of slander, aggravates the ofl'ence. 

66. It is the agreement of the parties to 
sell by sample "that constitutes a sale by 
sample, not the mere exhibition of a speci- 
men of the goods. 

67. An agent is liable to his principals 
for loss caused by his misstatements, tho' 
unintentional. 

68. Makers of promissory notes given in 
advance for premiums on policies of insur- 
ance, thereafter to be taken, are liable there- 



69. An agreement to pay for procuring an 
appointment to office is void. 

70. An attorney may plead the statute of 
limitations, when sued by a client for mon- 
ey which he has collected and failed to pay 
over. 

71. Testimony given by a deceased wit- 
ness on first trial, is not required to be re- 
peated verbatim on the second. 

72. A person entitling himself to a reward 
ofl'cred for lost property, has a lien upon the 
property for the reward ; but only when a 
definite" reward is ofl'ered. 

73. Confession by a prisoner must be vol- 
untarily made,to constitute endcnce against 
him. 

74. The defendant in a suit must be set v- 
ed with process ; but service of such pro- 
cess upon his wife, even in his absence from 
the State, is not. in the absence of gtAtuto- 
ry provisions, sufficient. 



75. The measure ofdamaKes in trespass 
ibr cutting timber, is its value as a chattel 
on the land where it was felled, and not the 
market price of the lumber manufactured. 

'T(i. To support an indictment for mali- 
cious mischief in killing an animal, mal- 
i'jo ttjwards its owner must be shown, not 
merely passion excited against the animal 

itself. 

'V'T. No action can be maintained against 
a iheriff for omitting to account for money 
obtained upon an execution within a reas- 
05.ial)le time. He has till the return day to 
render su.ch account. 

78. An interest in the profits of an enter- 
prise, as profits, renders the party hold- 
iae it a partner in the enterprise, and 
ma'kes him presumptively liable to share 
anj' loss. 

70. Males can marry at fourteen, and fe- 
males at twelve years of age. 

80. All cattle found at large upon any pub- 
lic road, can be driven by any person to the 
public pound.

wise threatening a passer-by in any street, 
lane, road, or other public thoroughfare, 
may be lawfully killed for the same. 

82. A written promise for the payment 
of such amount as may come into the hands 
of the promisor, is held to be an instru- 
ment in writing for the payment of money. 

83. The declaration of an agent is not ad- 
missible to establish the fact of agency.— 
But when other proper evidence is given, 
rending to establish the fact of agency, it 
ia not error to admit the declarations of the 
agent, accompanying acts, though tend- 
ing to show the capacity in which he act- 
ed. When e-^T-dence is competent in one 
respect and incompetent in another, it is 
the' duty of the court to admit it, and con- 
trol its efiects by suitable instructions to 
the jury. 

84. The court has a general power to re- 
move or suspend an attorney for such im- 
moral conduct as rendered him unworthy 
of confidence in his olHcial capacity. 

85. Banki-uptcy is pleadable in bar to all 
actions and in all courts, and this bar may 
be avoided whenever it is interposed, by 
showing fraud in the procurement of the 
discharge, or a violation of any of the pro- 
visions of the bankrupt act. 

8b. An instrument in the form of a deed, 
but limited to take effect at the termination 
of the grantor's natm-al life, is held to be a 
deed, not a will. 

87. A sale will not be set aside as fraud- 
ult;!it, simply because the buyer was at the 
time unable to make the payment a^eed 
upon, and knew his inability, and did not 
intend to pay. 

88. No man is under an obligation to 
make known his circumstances wien he is 
■■ouying goods. 



89. Contracting parties are bound to dis- 
close material facts known to each, but of 
which either supposes the other to be igno- 
rant, only when they stand in some special 
relation of trust and confidence in relation 
to the subject matter of the contract. But 
neither will be protected if he does any- 
thing, however slight, to mislead or deceive 
the other. 

90. A contract negotiated l">y mail is 
formed when notice ot acceptance of the of- 
fer is duly deposited in the post-office, pro- 
perly addressed. This rule applies, although 
the party making the ofter expressly re- 
quires that if it 18 accepted, speedy notice 
of acceptance shall be given him. 

91. The date of an instrument is so far a 
material part of it, that an alteration of 
the date by the holder after execution, 
makes the instrument void. 

92. A corporation may maintain an action 
for libel, for words published of them and 
relating to its trade or business, by which 
it has incurred special damages. 

93. It is unprofessional for a la-wj'er who 
has abandoned his case without trying it, 
a term or two before trial, to claim a fee 
conditional upon the success of his client, 
although his client was successful. 

94. Although a party obtaining damages 
for injuries received through the default of 
another, was himself guilty of negligence, 
yet that will not defeat his recovery, unless 
his negligence contributed to cause the in- 
jury. 

95. A person may contract to labor for an- 
other during life, in consideration of receiv- 
ing his support ; but his creditors have the 
right to inquire into the intention with 
which such arrangement is made, and it will 
be set aside if entered into to deprive them 
of his future earnings. 

96. A grantor may by express terms ex- 
clude the bed of a river, or a highway, 
mentioned as boundary ; but if withont 
language of exclusion a line is described as 
' along,' or ' upon,' or as ' running to ' the 
highway or river, or as ' by,' or ' running to 
the bank of the river; these expreaswns 
carry the grantee to the center of the high- 
way or river. 

97. The court will take pains to construe 
the words used in a deed in such a w:iy as 
to effect the intention of the parties, how- 
ever unskillfully the instrument may be 
drawn. But a court of law cannot exchange 
an intelligible word plainly employed in a 
deed for another, however evident it may 
be that the word used was used by mistake 
for another. 



98. One who has lost his memory and 
understanding is entitled to legal protec- 
tion, whether such loss is occasioned by 
his own misconduct or by an act of Provi- 
dence.

LAW MAXIMS. 



99. When a wife leaves her husband vol- 
untarily, it must be shown, in order to 
make Mm liable I'or necessaries furnished 
to her, that she could not stay with safety. 
Personal violence, either threatened or in- 
flicted, will be suflicient cause for such sep- 
aration. 

100. Necessaries of dress furnished to a 
discarded wife must correspond with the 
pecuniary circumstances of the husband, 
and be such articles as the wife, if prudent, 
would expect, and the husband should 
furnish, if the parties lived harmoniously 
together. 

101. A fugitive from justice from one of the 
United States to another, may be arrested 
and detained in order to his surrender by 
authority of the latter, without a previous 
demand for his surrender by the executive 
of the State whence he fled. 

102. A watch will not pass under a be- 
quest of " wearing apparel," nor of 
" household furniture and articles for fami- 
ly use." 

103. Money paid for the purpose of set- 
tling or compounding a prosecution for a 
supposed felony, cannot be recovered back 
by a party pajdng it. 

104. An innkeeper is liable for the death 
of an animal in his possession, but may free 
himself from liability by showing that the 
death was not occasioned by negligence on 
his part. 

105. Notice to the agent of a company is 
notice to the company. 

106. An employer is not liable to one of 
his employees for an injury sustained by the 
latter in consequence of the neglect of oth- 
ers of his employees engaged in the same 
general business. 

107. "Where a purchaser at a Sheriff's sale 
has bid the full price of property under 
the erroneous belief that the sale would di- 
vest the property of all liens, it is the duty 
of the court to give relief by setting aside 
the sale. 

108. Wlien notice of protest is properly 
sent by mail, it may be sent by the mail of 
the day of the dishonor; if not, it must bo 
mailed for the mail of the nest day ; ex- 
cept that if there is none, or it closes at an 
unseasonably early hour, then notice must 
be mailed in season for the nest possible 
mail. 

109. A powder-house located in a populous 
part of a city, and containing large quanti- 
ties of gunpowder, is a nuisance. 

110. When the seller of goods accepts at 
the time of tlie sale, the note of a third per- 
son, unindorsed by the purchaser, in pay- 
ment, the presumption is that the pay- 
ment was intended to be absolute ; and 
thou"^h the note should be dishonored, the 
purchaser will not be liable for the value of 
the goods. 



111. A man charged with crime before a 
committing magistrate, but discharged on 
his own recognizance, is not privileged 
from arrest on civil process while returning 
from the magistrate's oflice. 

112. When one has been induced to sell 
goods by means of false pretences, he can- 
not recover them from one who has bona 
fide purchased and obtained possession of 
them from the fraudulent vendor. 

11.3. If the circumstances attendant upon 
a sale and delivery of personal property are 
such as usually and naturally accompany 
such a transaction, it cannot be declared a 
legal fraud upon creditors. 

114. A stamp impressed upon an instru- 
ment by way of seal, is good as a seal, if it 
creates a durable impression in the texture 
of the paper. 

115. If a party bound to make a payment 
use due diligence to make a tender, but 
through the payee's absence from home is 
unable to find him or any agent authorized 
to take payment for him, no forfeiture will 
be incurred through his failure to make a 
tender.

a 40 acre lot would read : The south half 
of the west half of the southwest quarter 
of section 1 in township 24, north of range 
7 west, or as the case might be ; and som'e-

DEVIMAL SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS A^D MEASUBES.

THE DECIMAL SYSTEM 



OF 



WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. 

As Aiitliorized iiy Act of Congress-ApproYed my 28, 1866, 



STANDARDS. 

In every system of Weights and Measures 
it is necessary to have what are called 
" Standards,'' as the pound, yard, gallon, 
&c., to be divided and multiplied into 
smaller and larger parts and denominations. 
The definition and construction of these 
Standards involve philosophical and scien- 
tific principles of a somewhat abstruse 
character, and are made and procured by 
the legislative department of the govern- 
ment. The nominal Standards in the new 
system are the Meter, the Abe, the Liteb, 
and the Gram. The only real Standard, the 
one by which all the other standards are 
measured, and from which the system de- 
rives its name of " Metric," is the Meter. 

THE METER 

Is used for all measures of length, distance, 
breadth, depth, heighth, &c., and was in- 
tended to be, and is very nearly, one ten- 
millionth of the distance on the earth's 
surface from the equator to the pole. It is 
about 39% inches, or 3 feet, 3 inches and 
3 eighths, and is to be substituted for the 
yard. 

THE ARE 
Is a surface whose side is ten Meters, and 
is equal to 100 square Meters or about 4 
square rods. 

THE LITER 
Is the unit for measuring solids and capa- 
ity, and is equal to the contents of a cube 
whose edge is one-tenth of a meter. It is 
about equal to 1 quart, and is a standard in 
cubic, dry and liquid measures. 
D 



C^° A cubic Meter (or Kiloliter) is called 
a stere, and is also usedas a standard in cer- 
tain cubic measures. 

THE GRAM 

Is the Unit of weight, and is the weight of 
a cube of pure water, each edge of the cube 
being one one-hundredth of a Meter. It is 
about equal to 15^ grains. It is intended 
as the Standard in aU ig^eights, and with its 
divisions and multiples, to supersede the 
use of what are now called Avoirdupois, 
Apothecaries and Troy Weights. 

Each of the foregoing Standards is divi- 
ded decimally, and larger units are also 
formed by multiples of 10, 100, &c. The 
successive subordinate parts are designa- 
ted by the prefixes Deci, Centi andMilli; 
the successive multiples by Deka, Hecto, 
Kilo and Myria ; each having its own nu- 
merical signification, as will be more clear- 
ly seen in the tables hereinafter given. 

The terms used may, at first sight, have 
a formidable appearance, seem difficult to 
pronounce, and to retain in memory, and to 
be, therefore, objectionable ; but with a lit- 
tle attention and use, the apprehended dif- 
ficulty will be found more apparent than 
real, as has been abundantly proved by ex- 
perience. The importance, also, of con- 
formity in the use of commercial terms, on 
the part of the United States, with the 
practice of the many nations in which the 
system, with its present nomenclature, has 
already been adopted, must greatly over- 
balance the comparatively slight objection 
alluded to.

Acts and Resolutions of Congress. 

PUBLIC — No. 183. 

AN ACT to authorize the use of the metric 
system of weights and measures. 

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of 
Representatives of the United States of Ameri- 
ca in Congress assembled, That from and af- 
ter the passage of this act, it shall be law- 
ful throughout" the United States of Ameri- 
ca to employ the weights and measures of 
the metric system ; and no contract or deal- 
ing, or pleading in any court, shall be 
deemed invalid or liable to objection, be- 



cause the weights or measures exptessed or 
referred to therein are weights or measures 
of the metric system. 

Sec. 2. And be it further enacted. That 
the tables in the schedule hereto annexed, 
shall be recognized in the construction of 
contracts, and in all legal proceedings, as 
establishing, in terms of the weights and 
measures now in use in the United States, 
the equivalents of the weights and meas- 
ures expressed therein in terms of the me- 
tric system ; and said tables maybe lawful- 
ly used for computing, determining and ex- 
pressing, in customary weights and meas- 
ures, the Vsi-eights and measures of the metric 
system.

MIS VELLANSO US. 



I>iscount and PrezMium. 

When a person buys an article for $1,00 — 
20 per cent off, (or discount,) and sells it 
again for $1,00, he makes a profit of 25 per 
cent, on his investment. Thus : He pays 
80 cents and sells for $1,00— a gain of 20 
cents, or 25 per cent of 80 cents. And for 
auy transaction where the sale or purchase 
of gold, silver, or currency is concerned, 
the following rules will apply in all cases. 

Rule 1st. — To find premium when dis- 
count is given : Multiply 100 by rate of 
discount and divide by 100, less rate of dis- 
count. 

Rule 2d.— To find discount when pre- 
mium is given. Multiply the rate of interest 
by 100, and divide by 100, plus the rate of 
premium. 

Suppose A has $140 in currency, which 
he wishes to exchange for gold, when gold 
is 27 per cent, premium, now much gold 
should he receive ? In this case the pre- 
mium is given, consequently we must find 
the discount on A's currency and subtract 
it from the $140, as per rule 2d, showing 
the discount to be a trifle more than 21 per 
cent, and that he should receive $110.60 in 
gold.

Facts on Advertising-. 

The advertisements in an ordinary num- 
ber of the London Times exceed 2,.500. The 
annual advertising bills of one London flrm 
are said to amount to $200,000 : and throe 
others are mentioned who each annually 
expend for the purpose $50,000. The ex- 
pense for advertising the eight editions of 
the " Encyclopoedia i5ritauma " is said to 
have been $15,000. 



In large cities nothing is more common 
than to see large business establishments, 
which seem to have an immense advantage 
over all competitors, by the wealth, expe- 
rience, and prestige they have acquired, 
drop gradually out of public vie\*, and be 
succeeded by firms of a smaller capital, 
more energy, and more determined to have 
the fact that they sell such and such com- 
modities known from one end of the land to 
the other. In other words, the establish- 
ments advertise ; the old die of dignity.— 
The former are ravenous to pass out of ob- 
scurity into publicity; the, latter believe 
that their publicity is so obvious that it 
cannot be obscured. , The first understand 
that they must thrust themselves upon 
public attention, or be disregarded; the 
second, having once obtained public atten- 
tion, suppose they have arrested it perma- 
nently; while, in fact, nothing is more char- 
acteristic of the world than the ease with 
which it forgets. 

Stephen Girard, than whom no shrewder 
business man ever lived, used to say : I 
have always considered advertising liber- 
ally and Ions: to be the great medium of 
success in business, and the prelude to 
wealth. And I have made it an invariable 
rule too, to advertise in the dullest times 
as well as the busiest ; long experience 
having taught me that money thus spent is 
M'ell laid out ; as by keeping my business 
continually before the public it has secured 
me many sales that I would otherwise have 
lost.

S3ril]liajit Wliitetvasli. 

Many have liearcl of the 'brilliant stucco 
whitewash on the east end of the Presi- 
dent's house at Washington. The follow- 
ing is a recipe for it ; it is gleaned from the 
National Intelligencer, with some addi- 
'tional improvements learned by experi- 
ments : Take half a bushel of nice un- 
slacked lime, Slack it with boiling water, 
cover it during the process to keep in the 
steam. Strain the liquid through a fine 
sieve or strainer, and add to it a peck of 
salt, previously well dissolved in warm wa- 
ter ; three pounds of ground rice, boiled to 
a thin paste, and stirred in boiling hot ; half 
a pound of powdered Spanish whiting, and 
a pound of clean glue, which has been pre- 
viously dissolved by soaking it well, and 
then hanging it over a slow fire, in a small 
kettle within a large one filled with water. 
Add five gallons of hot water to the mixture, 
stir it well, and let it stand a few days cov- 
ered from the dirt. 

tt should be put on right hot ; for this 
purpose it can be kept m a kettle on a 
portable furnace. It is said that about a 
pint of this mixture will cover a square 
yard upon the outside of a house if proper- 
ly applied. Brushes more or less small may 
be used according to the neatness of the job 
required. It answers as well as oil paint 
for wood, brick or stone, and is cheaper. 
It ■ retains its brilliancy for many years. 
There is nothing of the kind that will 
compare with it, either for inside or outside 
walls. 

Coloring matter may be put in and made 
,of any shade you like. Spanish brown 
stirred in will make red pink, more or less 
deep according to the quantity. A delicate 
tinge of this is very pretty, for inside walls. 
Finely pulverized common clay, well mixed 
with Spanish brown, makes a reddish stone 
color. Yellow-ochre stirred in makes yel- 
low wash, but chrome goes further, and 
makes a color generally esteemed prettier. 
In all these cases the darkness of the shades 
of course is determined by the quantity of 
coloring used. It is diflicult to make rules, 
because tastes are diff'erent. It would be 
best to try experiments on a shingle and let 
it dry. We have been told that green must 
not be mixed with lime. The lime de- 
stroys the color, and the color has an effect 
on the whitewash, which makes it crack 
and peel. When walls have been badly 
smoked, and you wish to have them a clean 
white, it is well to squeeze indigo plenti- 
fully through a bag into the water you use, 
before it is stirred in the whole mixture. 
If a larger quantity than five gallons be 
wanted, the same proportion should be ob- 
served. 



in vain to save them, hit upon the expedi- 
ent of having them harnessed as though go- 
ing to their usual work; when, to his aston- 
ishment, they were led from the stable 
without difficulty. 



H<3>w to get a Morse out of a 
Fire- 

The great difficulty of getting horses from 
a stable where surrounding buildings are in 
a state of conflagation, is well known. — 
The plan of covering their eyes with a blan- 
ket will not always succeed. 

A gentleman whose horses have been in 
great peril from such a cause, having tried 



Tlxe Cliciiaical IBarometer. 

Take a long narrow bottle, such as an old- 
fashioned Eau-de-Cologne Ijottle, and put 
into it two and a half drachms of camphor, 
and eleven drachms of spirits of wine ; 
when the camphor is dissolved, which it 
will readily do by slight agitation, add the 
foUovidng mixture : Take water, nine 
drachms ; nitrate of potash (saltpetre) 
thirty-eight grains ; and muriate of am- 
monia (sal ammoniac)' thirty-eight grains. 
Dissolve these salts in the water prior to 
mixing with the camphorated spirit ; 6hen 
shake the whole well together. Cork the 
bottle well, and wax the top, but after- 
wards make a very small aperture in the 
cork with a red-hot needle. The bottle may 
then be hung up, or placed in any stationa- 
ry position. By observing the difterent 
appearances which the materials assume, 
as the weather changes, it becomes an ex- 
cellent prognosticator of a coming storm or 
of a sunny sky. 



iiCecJi ESaroineter. 

Take an eight ounce phial, and put in it 
three gills of water, and place in it a healthy 
leech, chano;ing the water in summer once 
a week, and in winter once in a fortnight, 
and it will most accurately prognosticate 
the weather. If the weather is to be fine, 
the leech lies motionless at the bottom of 
the glass and coiled together in a spiral 
form ; if rain may be expected, it will creep 
up to the top of its lodgings and remain 
there till the weather is settled ; if we are 
to have wind, it will move through its habi- 
tation with amazing swiftness, aTnd seldom 
goes to rest till it begins to blow hard ; if a 
remarkable storm of'thunder and rain is to 
succeed, it will lodge for some days before 
almost continually out of the water, and 
discover great uneasiness in violent throes 
and convulsive-like motions ; in frost a^ in 
clear summer-like weather it lies coiiBtantly 
at the bottom ; and in snow as in rainy 
weather it pitches its dwelling in the very 
mouth of the phial. The top should be cov- 
ered over with a piece of muslin. 



To Mbastjrb Grain in a Bin.— Find the 
number of cubic feet, from which deduct 
one-fifth. The remainder is the number of 
bushels— allowing, howevei', one bushel 
extra to every 224 Thus in a remainder of 
224 there would be 22.5 bushels. In a re- 
mainder of 448 there would be 450 bushels 
&c.

VAL UABLE RECIPES. 



[The following recipes are vouched for by 
several wKc have tried them and proven 
their virtues. Many of them have been sold 
singly for more than the price of this 
book.— Pub.] 

HORSES. 

Ring Bone and Spavin.— 2 oz. each of 
Spanish flies and Venice turpentine; 1 oz. 
each of aqua ammonia and euphorbium : }f 
«>z. red precipitate ; }i oz. corrosive subli- 
mate ; \}^ lbs. lard. When thoroughly pul- 
verized and mixed, heat carefully so as not 
to burn, and pour oft' free from sediment. 

For ring-bone, rub in thoroughly, after 
removing hair, once in 48 hours. For spav- 
in, once in 24 hours. Cleanse and press 
out the matter on each application. 

Poll-Evil. — Gum arabic }{ oz ; common 
potash }4 oz ; extract of belladonna }4 dr. 
Put the gum in just enough water to dis- 
solve it. Pulverize the potash and mix 
with the dissolved gum, and then put in the 
extract of belladonna,and it will be ready for 
use. Use with a syringe after having 
cleansed with soap suds, and repeat once 
in two days till a cure is afl;ected. 

Scours. — Powdered tormentil root, giv- 
en in milk, from 3 to 5 times daily till cured. 

Grkase-Heel and Scratches.— Sweet 
oil (5 ozs.; borax 2 ozs.; sugar of lead 2 ozs. 
Wash oft" with dish water, and, after it is 
dry, apply the mixture twice a day. 

CnoLic IN Horses.— To }4 pt. of warm 
water add 1 oz. laudanum and 3 ozs. spirits 
of turpentine, and repeat the dose in about 
% of an hour, adding )4 oz. powdered aloes, 
if not relieved. 

BoTS.— Three doses. 1st. 2 qts milk and 
1 of molasses. 2d. 15 minutes after, 2 qts. 
warm sage tea. 3d. After the expiration 
of 30 minutes, sufiicient lard to physic. — 
Never fails. 



MISCELLANEOUS. 

Piles— Perfectly Cured.— Take flour of 
sulphur 1 oz., rosin 3 ozs., pulverize and mis 
well together. (Color with carmine, or 
cochineal, if you like.) Dose- What will 
lie on a five cent piece, night and morning, 
washing the parts freely in cold water once 
or twice a day. This is a remedy of great 
value. 

The cure will be materially hastened by 
taking a table-spoon of sulphur in a half 
pint of milk, daily, until the cnre is aftected. 

Sure Cure for Corns, Warts and 
Chilblains.— Take of nitric and muriatic 
acids, blue vitriol and salts of tartar, 1 oz. 
each. Add the blue vitriol, pulverized, to 
either of the acids; add the salts of tartar 
in the same way ; when done foaming, add 
the other acid, and in a few days it will be 
ready for use. For chilblains and corns 
apply it very lightly with a swab, and re- 
peat in a day or two until cured. For warts, 
once a week, until they disappear. 

Hoof- Ail in Sheep.— Mix 2 ozs. each of 
butterof antimony and muriatic acid with 
1 oz. of pulverized white vitriol, and apply 
once or twice a week to the bottom of the 
foot. 

CosiMON Rheumatism.— Kerosene oil 2 
ozs.; neats-foot oil 1 oz.; oil of organum }4 
oz. Shake when used, and rub and heat in 
twice daily. 

Vert Fine Soap, Quickly and Cheap- 
ly Made. — Fourteen pounds of bar soap 
in a half a boiler of hot water ; cut up fine ; 
add three pounds of sal-soda made fine; 
one ounce of pulverized rosin ; stir it often 
till all is dissolved ; just as you take it oft" 
the fire, put in two table-spoonfuls of spirits 
of turpentine and one of ammonia 5 pour it 
in a barrel, and fill up with cold soft water ; 
let it stand three or four days before using. 
It is an excellent soap for washing clothes, 
extracting the dirt readily, and not fading 
colored articles. 



fAL UABLE RECIPES. 



61 



Water Proof for Leather. — Take lin- 
seed oil 1 pint, yellow was and white tur- 
pentine each 2 ozs. Burgundy pitch 1 oz., 
melt and color with lampblack. 

To Keep Cider Sweet. — Put into each 
barrel, immediately after makiug, }i lb. 
ground mustard, 2 oz. salt and 2 oz. pulver- 
ized chalk. Stir them in a little cider, pour 
them into the barrel, and shake up well. 

Ague Cure.— Procure 1>^ table-spoons of 
fresh mandrake root juice, (by pounding) 
and mix with the same quantity of molas- 
ses, and take in three equal doses, 2 hours 
a part, the whole to be taken 1 hour before 
the chill comes on. Take a swallow of 
some good bitters before meals, for a couple 
of weeks after the chills are broken, and the 
cure will be permanent. 

Cure for Salt Rheum or Scurvt.— 
Take of the pokeweed, anytime in sum- 
mer ; pound it ; press out the juice ; strain 
it into a pewter dish; set it in the sun till it 
becomes a salve — then put it into an earth- 
en mug; add to it fresh water and bees' 
was sufficient to make an ointment of com- 
mon consistency ; simmer the whole over 
a fire till thoroughly mised. When cold, 
rub the part affected. The patient will al- 
most immediately experience its good ef- 
fects, and the most obstinate cases will be 
cured in three or four months. Tested. — 
The juice of the ripe berries may be pre- 
pared in the same way. 

Superior Paint — for Brick Houses.— 
To lime whitewash, add for a fastener, sul- 
phate of zinc, and shade with any color you 
choose, as yellow och're, Venetian red, etc. 
It outlasts oil paint. 



Felons. — Stir 1 oz. of Venice turpentine 
with }4 tea-spoonful of water, till it looks 
like candied honey, and apply by spreading 
upon cloth and wrapping around the finger. 
If not too long delayed will cure in 6 hours. 

A poke root poultice is also said to be a 
sure remedy. 

Water-Proof Blacking and Harness 
Polish.— Take two and a half ounces gum 
shellac and half a pint of alcohol, and set 
in a warm place until dissolved ; then add 
two and a half ounces Venice turpentine 
to neutralize the alcohol; addatablespoon- 
ful of lampblack. Apply with a fine sponge. 
It will give a good polish over oil or grease. 

Mosquitos. — To get rid of these tormen- 
tors, take a few hot coals on a shovel, or a 
chafing dish, and burn upon them some 
brown sugar in your bed-rooms and parlors, 
and you effectually banish or destroy every 
mosquito for the night. 

Cheap Outside Paint. — Take two parts 
(in bulk) of water lime ground fine, one part 
(in bulk) of white lead ground in oil. Mix 
them thoroughly, by adding best boiled lin- 
seed oil, enough to prepare it to pass through 
a paint mill, after which temper with oil 
till it can be applied with a common paint 
brush. Make any color to suit. It will last 
three times as long as lead paint, and cost 
not one-fourth as much. It is Superior. 

Cure for a Cough. — A strong decoction 
of the leaves of the pine, sweetened with 
loaf sugar. Take a wine-glass warm on go- 
ing to bed, and half an hour before eating 
three times a day. The above is sold as a 
cough syrup, and is doing wonderful cures, 
and it is sold at a great profit to the liianu- 
facturers. 



Mow to Judge a Horse. 

A correspondent, contrary to old maxims, 
undertakes to judge the character of ahorse 
by outward appearances, and ofl'ers the fol- 
lowing suggestions, the resultof his close 
observation and long experience : 

If the color be light sorrell, or chestnut, 
his feet, legs ami face white, these are 
marks of kindness. If he is broad and full 
between the eyes, he may be depended on 
as a horse of good sense, and capable of be- 
ing trained to anything. 

As respects such horses, the more kindly 
you treat them the better you will be treat- 
ed in return. Nor will a horse of this de- 
scription stand a whip, if well fed. 

If you want a safe horse, avoid one that 
is dish-faced. He may be so far gentle as 
not to scare ; but he will have too much go- 
ahead in him to be safe with everybody. 

If you want a fool, but a horse of great 
bottom, get a deep bay, with not a white 
hair about him. If his face is a little' dish- 
ed, so much the worse. Let no man ride 
such a horse that is not an adept in riding 
— they are always tricky and unsafe. 



If you want one that will never give out, 
never buy a large, overgrown one. 

A black horse cannot stand heat, nor a 
white one cold. 

If you want a gentle horse, get one with 
more or less white about the head ; the 
more the better. Many persons suppose 
the parti-colored horses belonging to the 
circuses, shows, &c., are selected for their 
oddity. But the selections thus made are 
on account of their great docility and gen- 
tleness. 



OTeasureBaent of Hay in tlie 
RIo\v or Staclf , — It is often desirable, 
where conveniences for weighing are not at 
hand, to purchase and sell hay by measure- 
ment. It is evident that no fixed rule will 
answer in all cases, as it would require 
more cubic feet at the top of a mow than at 
the bottom. The general rule adopted by 
those who have tested it, is 7>^ cubic feet of 
solid Timothy hay, as taken from mow or 
bottom of stack. The rule may be varied 
for upper part of mow or stack according 
to pressure.

MONTGOMERY COUNTY. 63 



THIS COUNTY was formed from Albany, March 13, 
1772. It was first called Try on County, in hwior of William 
Tryon, the Colonial Governor, and embraced all that part of the 
State west of the Delaware Eiver and a line extending north 
through Schoharie County, and along ' the east lines of Mont- 
gomery, Fulton and Hamilton Counties, to Canada. Its name 
was changed to Montgomery, in honor of Gen. Richard Mont- 
gomery, April 2, 1784. Ontario was taken off in 1789 ; Herki- 
mer, dtsego and Tioga in 1791 ; Hamilton in 1816, and Fulton 
in 1838. It lies on both sides of the Mohawk, is centrally dis- 
tant thirty-nine miles from Albany, and contains 436 square 
miles. 

The general system of highlands which forms the connecting 
link between the northern spurs of the Alleghany Mountains 
on the south, and the Adirondacks on the north, extends 
through this County in a north-east and south-west direction. 
Mohawk Eiver cuts through these highlands and forms a valley 
from one to two miles wide, and from 200 to 500 feet below the 
summits of the hills. The valleys of some of the tributaries of 
the Mohawk extend several miles into the highland district at 
nearly right angles to the river valley. The hills bordering 
upon the river generally rise in gradual slopes, and from their 
summits the country spreads out into undulating uplands, with 
a general inclination towards the river, into which the whole 
surface of the County is drained. The principal tributaries of 
the Mohawk are the East Canada, Garoga, Cayadutta, Chucte- 
nunda Creeks and Evas Kil on the nortli, and Cowilliga, Chuc- 
tenunda, Schoharie, Auries, Flat, Canajoharie and Otsquaga 
Creeks on the south. The highest point in the County is Bean 
Hill, in Florida, which is estimated at 700 feat above tide ; and 
the lowest point is the bed of the Mohawk on the east line of 
the County, 260 feet above tide. 

The lowest rocks of the County are primary, consisting of the 
various kinds of gneiss, granite, kc, and appear chiefly at " The 
looses," on the Mohawk. Next above these, and appearing on

MONTGOMERY COUNTY. 



the north bank of the river, is the calciferous sandstone group. 
This rock often contains in its cavities quartz and small pieces 
of anthracite coal, leading some to suppose that it may be found 
in quantities that will pay for mining. Traces of lead have 
been found near Spraker's Basin. Next in order are the Black 
Kiver and Trenton limestone, which furnish valuable quarries 
of building stone. The slates and shales of the Hudson Eiver 
group extend along the south border of the County, and are 
found in a few places north of the river. Drift and bowlders 
abound in some parts. The soil along the river consists of al- 
luvial deposits and a deep, rich, vegetable mold, and upon the 
uplands it is mostly a highly productive sandy and gravelly 
loam. The productions are chiefly grass and spring grains. 
The uplands are well adapted to pasturage, and dairying forms 
the leading pursuit. Immense quantities of broom corn are 
raised along the Mohawk flats. Manufacturing is carried on at 
various points and will be noticed under the various towns. 
Important quarries are worked at several points. 

The principal public works are the Erie Canal, extending along 
the south bank of the Mohawk, and the New York Central E. 
E., on the north bank. A wire suspension bridge crosses the 
Mohawk at Fort Hunter, and iron bridges at Fort Plain and at 
Canajoharie also span the river, while wood structures still af- 
ford the means of crossing at Amsterdam, Fonda and St. Johns- 
ville. 

The County Seat was located at Fonda, the site of the ancient. 
Dutch Settlement of Caughnaiuaga, in 1836, on its removal from 
Johnstown. The conditions of removal were that a subscrip- 
tion of $4,500 should be raised, and a site of not less than three 
acres donated to the County. The Court House is a fine brick 
structure, surmounted by a dome and containing the usual 
County offices. It has undergone extensive repairs during the 
past year, and is now well adapted to the purposes for which it 
was designed. The Jail is a stone building in the rear of the 
Court House. A tablet with the following inscription is in the 
front wall of the Court House : " This building was erected in 
th(5 year 1836, by Lawrence Marcellus, carpenter, and Henry 
Holmes, mason, under the charge of Aaron C. Wheelock, Henry 
Adams and Howland Fish, Commissioners charged with its 
erection." 

The Montgomery County Poor House is located in the town of 
Glen, about one 'and a quarter miles east of Fultonvillc. The 
following is taken from the Eeport of the State Commissioners 
of Public Charities : 

" In 1866, under authority conferred by special act of the 
Legislature, the Supervisors of Montgomery County disposed 



M ONTO OMER Y CO VNTY. 6 5 

of by sale, tlieir county poor house together with a farm of one 
hundred and forty acres, for the sum of $8,000. Since that 
time the poor of the county have been supported in the house 
by contract, the purchaser of the property being the contractor. 
The ov^'seers of the poor arrange for the support of paupers of 
their respective towns, and the supervisors contract for those 
becoming a county charge. The price paid for the support of 
ordinary paupers is $2.50, and for insane and idiotic 13.50 per 
week. A single county superintendent attends to the general 
duties pertaining to the administration of out-door temporary 
relief. 

"The buildings occupied are constructed of wood, and 
have been in use for nearly forty years. Since being taken 
possession of by the present owner, they have undergone ex- 
tensive repairs and are now quite comfortable. The main 
building is two stories in height, and eighty-five feet in length 
by thirty-two feet in width ; another building of the same 
length crosses at the rear, and the two buildings are connected 
by lateral wings on the right and left. The space enclosed by 
the several buildings forms a central yard, to which the in- 
mates have free access at all times. A few aged persons are 
provided with separate apartments and receive marked atten- 
tion ; beyond this no classification of the inmates is made, 
except separation of the sexes at night. 

" The buildings are warmed by stoves, readily ventilated, and 
supplied with water in abundance. There are no bath tubs in 
the house, but the inmates are required to bathe weekly in 
their rooms. The Sabbath is observed in attendance upon 
appropriate religious services held in the house, the super- 
visors appropriating funds to defray the necessary expenses, and 
also for the support of a week-day school, maintained during 
the entire year. The house is furnished with iron bedsteads 
throughout, and all the beds are covered with white coiinter- 
panes. Everything pertaining to the Institution was found neat 
and in good order, and, as far as could be learned, the poor of 
the county are well fed and properly cared for. The contractor 
stated that the price paid for support had proved reasonably re- 
munerative since his connection at the house. 

'•' The expenditures connected with the house during the past 
year amounted to 14,350.00, and that of temporary relief for the 
same period to 13,796.09 ; the aggregate expenses for the year on 
account of the poor being $8,146.09. Three thousand two hun- 
dred and eighty-three persons are reported as having been sup- 
ported or relieved. About one-half of them were native born, 
and nearly one-third were reduced to want in consequence of 



6 6 MONTG OMER Y CO UNTY. 

sickness, infirmity or old age ; a large number were the victims 
of intemperance. 

"At the date of visitation, August 31st, sixty persons were 
found in the house. The majority of them were females, and 
two-thirds were native born. Included, and among th#num- 
ber, were eleven children under sixteen years of age, niif e insane 
and four idiotic. 

" The insane are assigned quarters in the main building situa- 
ted at the rear of the main structure. The cells have been re- 
cently repaired and enlarged and without doubt this class of 
persons are better cared for than formerly, but nothing was seen 
to particularly commend in reference to their management. Four 
were found in confinement, and the only means of restraint 
employed is shutting up in cells. The balance are quiet and 
allowed their liberty during the day, being confined at night. 
Seven have been inmates of the State Asylum, and it was stated 
that a few had improved since their discharge, but it was not 
claimed that any had fully recovered. A physician visits the 
house, but the insane receive no special medical attendance ex- 
cept when sick ; and the only care bestowed upon them is given 
by the keeper, aided by pauper inmates. The labor performed ' 
by those committed to the house inures to the benefit of the 
contractor." 

The original purchaser of the property was Mr. Hiram Sam- 
mons. In December, 1868, he died, and Robert Wemple pur- 
chased the property and assumed the contract for the support of 
the poor. The number of paupers is about eighty. 

At the time of the advent of the whites to this County it was 
the chief seat of the Mohawks, one of the most powerful tribes 
of Indians in the State. The first settlers were German Pala- 
tinates, and the policy which they adopted towards the natives 
strongly attached a majority of them to the interests of the set- 
tlers. During the subsequent wars between the English and 
French, the Five Nations were faithful allies of the English 
and in many instances shielded them from hostile attacks. In 
16G5-6 a French expedition consisting of 600 men under De 
Courcelles and De Tracy, was sent against the Indians. It pro- 
ceeded as far as Schenectady, but after much suffering and the 
loss of many men the army returned to Canada without ac- 
complishing anything. Several expeditions were sent against 
the western tribes during the next few years, and by way of re- 
taliation the Indians made a descent against Montreal in 1689 
and laid waste a large tract of country and destroyed many 
lives. In retaliation several expeditions were sent against the 
Indians and English by Count Frontenac, one of which de- 
stroyed Schenectady in 1690. The Indians had three castles in 



MONTOOMERT COUNTY.

the Mohawk Valley, one of which was at the mouth of Scho- 
harie Creek, another at the month of Otsqaga, and a third at 
the mouth of the Nowadaga, in Herkimer County. In the 
winter of 1692-3 the French invaded this region and destroyed 
two oA;he castles and took about three hundred prisoners. In 
one engagement the French lost thirty of their number, and in 
their retreat were followed by Major Peter Schuyler, at the 
head of two hundred regulars and militia, who succeeded in 
killing about thirty and in rescuing about fifty prisoners. The 
remainder escaped and fled to Canada through the great nor- 
thern wilderness. As early as 1642 the 'F'rench Jesuits sent 
^their missionaries among the Mohawks, and through their ex- 
ertions some were induced to embrace the Eoman Catholic re- 
ligion and subsequently removed to Canada. 

In 1711 a military post known as Fort Hunter was establish- 
ed near the mouth of Schoharie Creek, and about the same 
time a large number of German Palatinates, sent out by Queen 
Anne, settled on the Hudson, and soon after removed to the 
Mohawk Valley and settled on lands belonging to the Govern- 
ment. A considerable number of the Holland Dutch also 
settled in the County about the same time. 

The land grants were issued in comparatively small tracts. 
In 1714 a tract of 2,000 acres v/as granted to John and Marga- 
rett Collins ; in 1722, 6,000 acres to Lewis Morris & Co. ; in 1723 
a tract of 12,700 acres was granted to John Christian Garlock 
and others, for the benefit of the Palatinates, and called Stone 
Arabia. In 1737 a tract of 10,000 acres, south of the Mohawk, 
and 5,426 acres, north of the same stream; was granted to James 
De Lancey and others and called De Lancey's Patent. Other 
grants were made, so that in 1760 but little remained in the 
County that had not been granted to some party. 

About the year 1735, Sir Peter Warren, an Admiral in the 
British Navy, acquired the title to a large tract of land lying on 
the south side of the Mohawk, in the present town of Florida,' 
and known as Warren'' s Bush. He sent his nephew, afterv/ards 
known as Sir William Johnson, to take the charge of it. John- 
son at first located at the mouth of Schoharie Creek, but after 
obtaining the title to a tract of land north of the river, he erect- 
ed a stone house, about three miles west of the village of Am- 
sterdam, and made that his residence until his removal to 
Johnstown about 1762. This place was fortified and known as 
Fort Johnson, a name which it still bears. Through the influ- 
ence of his uncle he obtained the appointment of Indian Agent, 
and by learning the language and adopting the dress and habits 
of the Indians whenever it appeared expedient, he acquired a 
greater influence over them than any other white man had ever

before obtained. He died July 11, 1774 His son, Sir John 
Johnson, and his sons-in-law, Guy Johnson and Daniel Glaus, 
were among the most inflnential of those who adhered to the 
King when the straggle for Independence began. The£cerman 
Palatinates generally united with the Colonies, and tro other 
settlers entertained similar sentiments, but for some time they 
were overawed by the Johnsons, and their efforts to organize 
were thwarted by the activity of the Tory leaders. 

Tryon County was divided into six districts, and for the j^ur- 
pose of a more thorough organization, delegates were apj)ointed 
in each by the Patriots to form a- Committee of Public Safety. 
These districts were Mohaivk, adjoining Albany; Carwjoharie, 
in the south side of the Mohawk, and Palatine on the north, ex- 
tending up the river to Little Falls ; German Flats and Kings- 
land, still further up the river ; and Old England District, west 
of the Susquehanna. The first five of these districts were formed 
March 24, 1772. On the 8th of March, 1773, the original name. 
Stone Arabia, was changed to Palatine, Oerman Flats was 
changed to Kingsland, and Kiyigsland to German Flats. Old 
England District was formed April 3, 1775. Col. Guy Johnson 
had succeeded to the office of Indian Agent, and his acts were 
so aggressive and partisan that the Committee addressed a re- 
monstrance. In June, 1775, he withdrew to Cosby's Manor, un- 
der pretense of holding a council with the Indians in the west 
part of the County, and shortly after fled to Montreal by way of 
Oswego, accompanied by a large number of dependents and fol- 
lowers. He continued to act as Indian Agent during the war, 
and by liberal rewards and more liberal promises incited the In- 
dians to active hostilities. In Canada he Avas joined by Joseph 
Brant, a distinguished and educated Mohawk Chief, and by John 
and Walter JST. Butler, two Tories Avho gained an infamous no- 
toriety for their barbarity, which surpassed that of the Indians. 
These persons had all resided in Tryon County and were well 
qualified by their knowledge of the settlements to lead maraud- 
ing parties of Tories and Indians on their work of desolation. 
Sir John remained at the Hall, and thougli he could still count 
among his relatives and neighbors many adherents, yet he was 
not ignorant of the fact that the leaven of civil liberty was 
working among the Colonists to a greater extent than was de- 
sired by him. He therefore began to fortify Johnson Hall and 
to arm his attendants and make preparations to support actively 
the cause of the Crown whenever an opportunity should offer. 
The Committee of Safety suspecting tliat he was meditating 
hostilities and that he was in correspondence with Guy John- 
son, determined to ascertain his intentions. For this purpose 
they addressed him the following letter : 



montgomery county. 69 

" Tryox County Committee Chamber, \ 
October 26, 1775. [ 
" Honoeable Sir : 

V " As we find particular reason to be convinced of 
yonr opinion in the questions hereafter expressed, we request 
that you will oblige us with your sentiments thereon in a few 
lines by our messengers, the bearers hereof, Messrs. Ebenezer 
Cox, James M ' Master and John J. Clock, members of our Com- 
mittee. We wish to know whether you will allow the inhab- 
itants of Johnstown and Kingsborough to form themselves into 
companies according to the regulations of our Continental Con- 
gress for the defense of our country's cause ; and whether your 
Honor would be ready himself to give his personal assistance to 
the same purpose ; also whether you pretend a prerogative to 
our County Court House and Jail and would hinder or inter- 
rupt the Committee making use of the same to our want and 
service in the common cause. We do not doubt you will com- 
ply with our reasonable request and thereby oblige, 

Honorable Sir, 
Your obedient and humble servants. 

By order of the Committee, 
Nicholas Herkimer, Chairman." ' 

To this Sir John replied, that as to embodying his tenants, 
he never did or should forbid them ; but they might save them- 
selves further trouble, as he kneAv his tenants would not consent. 
Concerning himself, sooner than lift his hand against his King, 
or sign any association, he would suffer his head to be cut off. 
As to the Court House and Jail, he would not deny the use of 
them for the purpose for which they were built, but that they were 
his property until he should be refunded seven hundred pounds. 
He further said he had been informed that two-thirds of the Cana- 
joharie and German Flats people had been forced to sign the as- 
sociation. 

• Johnson continued his defensive works about the Hall, and 
it Avas currently reported that, in addition to his tenants and 
adherents, three hundred Indians were to garrison the works, 
to be let loose upon the settlement as occasion might offer. 

Having become convinced of his hostile intentions. General 
Schuyler, who had charge of the Northern Department, wrote 
to him in January, 1776, stating that he had been informed 
that " designs of the most dangerous tendency to the lives and 
liberties of those who are opposed to the unconstitutional meas- 
ures of the. ministry, have been formed in a part of Tryon 
County," he was ordered ^to march a body of men into that 
County to contravene those dangerous designs. Influenced by 
motives of humanity, he declared that he wished to comply 



70 MONTGOMERY COUNTY. 



with his orders in a^ manner the most peacable, that no 
blood might be shed, and therefore requested that Sir John 
would meet him the next day at any place on his Avay to Johns- 
town. To this letter Sir John returned an unsatisfactor3ireply. A 
correspondence ensued which resulted in an agreement on the 
part of Sir John to disarm his Scotch tenants and to refrain 
from any and all acts hostile to the Colonies. For some reason 
this agreement was violated, and he resumed his intrigues, 
secretly instigating the Indians to hostilities-. Under these cir- 
cumstances it was thought best to secure the person of Sir 
John, and Col. Dayton was dispatched with a force to arrest 
him. Being warned of their approach, Sir John and his fol- 
lowers escaped to the woods, and after nineteen days of great 
hardship and suffering reached Canada by way of Sacondaga 
and Eacket Elvers. Sir John received a commission of Colonel 
in the British service, and raised a regiment of Tories known 
as " Johnson's Greens," and was active and bitter in his hos- 
tility to the Colonists throughout the war. Through the in- 
fluence of the Johnsons all of the Six Nations, except a por- 
tion of the Oneidas and Tuscaroras, united their fortunes with 
the British and were liberally aided by arms and provisions in 
their incursions into the frontier settlements. Several efforts 
were made on the part of the Americans to attach the Indians 
to their cause, or at least to induce them to remain neutral, but 
with the exceptions named, all to no purpose. During the 
summer and fall of 1777 this County, in common with other 
portions of the northern and western frontier, was the scene of 
great alarm and stirring events caused by the expedition of 
Burgoyne. General Barry St. Leger had been dispatclied with 
an army of Tories and Indians, by the way of Oswego, to re- 
duce the forts and settlements on the Mohawk and join the 
main army of Burgoyne at Albany. Fort Schuyler, where 
Eome is now situated, was besieged on the third day of August. 
The militia of Montgomery County were called out, and under 
the command of General Herkimer, marched to the relief of 
the Fort. At Oriskany they were surprised by a body of Tories 
and Indians, and a bloody battle was fought in which two hun- 
dred of the 23atriots of the County were killed and as many more 
taken prisoners. There was scarcely a hamlet in the valley that 
did not lose one or more of its inhabitants. A few weeks after 
this, General Arnold, at the head of about 900 troops, marched 
to the relief of the Fort, and St. Leger hastily retreated. Dur- 
ing the faU and the following year Indian scouts prowled 
around tbe settlements upon the western border, murdering or 
carrying into captivity small parties of settlers and soldiers 
when the opportunity offered. Sir John Johnson Avas present 



MONTG OMER Y GO UNTT. 7 1 



at the siege of Fort Sctiuyler, but as this proved a failure he 
made two other incursions into the County. On the 21st of 
May, 1780, he suddenly appeared at Johnson Hall at the head 
of 500 Indians and Tories. He arrived about sunset on Sun- 
day, and dividing his force into two parties, at daylight the 
next morning he made an attack simultaneously upon Tribes 
Hill and Caughnawaga, (Fonda,) killing several persons and 
taking others prisoners, and burning every building upon the 
route except those belonging to Tories. The militia collected 
in considerable numbers, and towards night Sir John retreated 
to Canada by way of the wilderness west of the Adirondack 
Mountains. The principal object of this incursion was to ob- 
tain the silver plate which had been buried on his hasty retreat 
from the Hall. Near the last of July of the same year, the 
militia of the County were sent to guard a provision train sent 
to the relief of Fort Schuyler. On the 2d of August, while 
they were absent, Brant, at the head of 500 Indians and Tories, 
made an attack upon the settlements in the vicinity of Fort 
Plain. Fifty -three dwellings were burned, sixteen persons v\^ere 
slain and sixty women and children carried into captivity. The 
party retreated on the approach of the militia from Johnstown 
and Schenectady. In October a large body of Tories, Indians 
and Canadians, under Sir John Johnson, Brant and Corn- 
planter, made their appearance at the mouth of ScKbharie Creek 
after having laid waste the settlements above. The troops of 
Sir John were chiefly collected near Montreal, from which point 
they ascended the St. Lawrence to Lake Ontario and Oswego, 
from this point to Oneida Lake, where they left their boats and 
proceeded over land to join the Tories and Indians collected at 
Tioga Point. They had with them two small mortars and a 
three-pound brass cannon, called a grasshopper, from the cir- 
cumstance of its being mounted on legs instead of wheels ; these 
pieces were carried through the woods on pack horses. These 
troops, to the number of 2,000, were all provided with eighty 
rounds of cartridges. They passed along the east bank of the 
Susquehanna to its source, thence across to the Schoharie 
Creek and down that to the Mohawk, spreading destruction 
and desolation in their course. From the mouth of Schoharie 
Creek the main body passed up the Mohawk on the south side, 
while Captain Duncan, with three companies of the " Greens " 
and some Indians, crossed to the north side, and proceeding up 
the river, destroyed all that was left of Caughnawaga in the pre- 
ceding raid, and all that had been rebuilt. The march upon 
both sides of the river was one of the most complete devastation ; 
rapine and plunder were carried to the fullest extent, and every 
thing combustible was given to the flames. The inhabitants, 



78 MONTGOMERY COUNTY. 

panic stricken, escaped death or captivity only by flight. On 
the night of the 18th Sir John encamjoed a short distance aboTC 
The Noses, and the next morning crossed the river at Keeders 
Eifts. Most of the army continued up the river, but a detach-^ 
ment of one hundred and fifty men was dipatched against a 
small stockade fort in Stone Arabia called Fort Paris. This 
was in command of Colonel Brown with one hundred and 
thirty men. As soon as the news of Johnson's incursion reach- 
ed Albany, General Eobert Van Eensselaer, attheheadofaparty 
of militia, started in pursuit. He arrived at Caughnawaga on 
the 18th, and having learned that Fort Paris was to be attacked 
the next day, dispatched orders to Col. Brown to march out and 
attack the ehemy while he would fall upon his rear. Brown 
promptly sallied: forth to the attack, but Eennselaer had been 
so impeded in, his march as to be unable to create any diversion 
in Browh's faivor, whose force Was too weak to withstand the 
enemy or cheek his progress. Col. Brown and about forty of 
his men fell in the attack, the remainder sought safety in flight; 
Johnson noAV dispersed his troops in small bands in all direc- 
tions to plunder and destroy. Towards evening these marauf 
ciers were collected together and marched back to the river road 
east of Garoga Creek. Avoiding a small defense near the mouth 
of the Creek, Sir John moved west, continuing his course to 
Kloek's Field, where, from the fatigue of the troops and the 
burthen of the plunder, it became necessary to halt. 

General Van Eensselaer was now in close pursuit' with a 
strong force. He had encamped the previous night at Van 
Epps, on the south side of the river, not more than three miles 
from Johnson, whose troops must have been weary from their 
long marches and heavy knapsacks, while Van Eensselaer s were 
fresh in the field. Captain McKean, with abov-t eighty volun- 
teers and a strong bod,y of Oueid;a warriors, had also joined him, 
making his force superior to that of Johnson. Sir John had 
placed a guard of forty men at the ford to dispute the passage. 
On approaching, this point Van Eensselaer halted and did not 
again ' advance until the guard was withdrawn. He continued 
on the south side while Johnson was continuing his work of 
death upon the north. He arrived opposite the battle ground 
where Col. Brown had fallen before the firing ceased a^d while 
(■he Indian war-whoop was still resounding. While halting 
about three miles below Garoga Creek, some of the fugitives 
from Brown's regiment arrived, fording the river without diffi- 
culty. Genei'al Van Eensselaer made an excuse for not cross- 
ing that he w'i\^ not acquainted with the fording place. Being 
informed that there was no dilficulty in crossing, Capt. McKean 
and th.e' Oneida Chief led their commands through the river, 



MONTGOMERY COUNTY. 73 

expecting the main army to follow. General Van Eensselaer, 
however, immediately mounted his horse and rode away to Fort 
Plain to dine with Gov. Clinton. Meantime the baggage 
wagons were driven into the stream to serve in part as a bridge 
for the army, which com'menced crossing in single files. In 
this way the passage was not effected until four o'clock P. M., 
. at which time the General returned. Col. Louis, as the Oneida 
Chief was called, shook his sword at him and denounced him 
as a Tory. Col. William Harper also remonstrated with him on 
account of the unnecessary delay, attended as it had been by a 
needless loss of life and property. From this time the troops 
advanced without unnecessary delay, in three divisions, the ad- 
vance led by Col. Morgan Lewis. Sir John, anticipating an at- 
tack, had disposed of his force upon a small alluvial plain, part- 
ly surrounded by a bend in the river. A slight breastwork had 
been thrown up across the neck of the little peninsula, and the 
Indians under Brant were secreted among the thick scrub oaks 
that covered the land a little to the north and a few feet higher. 
Here a spirited engagement took place in which Sir John and 
his troops were routed, and had he been followed up as he 
should have been, the whole force might have been destroyed 
or captured. General Van Eensselaer has been severely censured 
for his course and denounced by many as a Tory at heart. The 
prospects of the Mohawk Valley were now shrouded in gloom. 
Nearly every settlement had been desolated and nearly every fam- 
ily had lost some of its members. The Supervisors of Try on Coun- 
ty prepared a statement dated December 20, 1780, and presented 
to the Legislature, giving some idea of the desolation made 
throughout this region. This statement declares that 700 build- 
ings had been burned in the County ; 354 families had aban- 
doned their habitations and removed ; 613 persons had deserted 
to the enemy; 197 had been killed; 121 taken prisoners, and 
1,200 farms lay uncultivated by reason of the enemy. This 
statement did not include Cherry Valley, Newtown, Martin, 
Middlefield, Springfield, liarpersfield, and Old England Dis- 
trict, which had been utterly destroyed and abandoned. The 
population at the beginning of the war was about 10,000. 
Though the sufferings of the colonists Avere great the Indian 
loss was much greater. Their whole country had been ravaged, 
their crops destroyed and many of their number had died in 
battle or by starvation. At the close of the war a miserable 
remnant of the once powerful nations returned to sue for peace. 
In the spHng of 1781, Colonel Marinus Willett assumed com- 
mand of the American forces on the Mohawk, and by his mili- 
tary skill, daring and knowledge of Indian warfare, repelled all 
the attacks made upon the Mohawk settlements and carried the 



74 MONTGOMEUY COUNTY. 

war into the enemy's own country. On the 9th of July, 1781, 
about 300 Indians, under a Tory named Doxtader, made a sud- 
den attack upon the settlement of Curry town in the town of 
Eoot, burning the buildings and collecting a large amount of 
booty. Col. Willett, with 150 militia, immediately pursued and 
overtook them at Dorlach, a few miles over the line of Schoha- 
rie County. By stratagem he succeeded in drawing the Indians 
into an ambuscade and defeated them, killing forty of their num- 
ber and retaking all their plunder. Some of their prisoners 
were murdered to prevent their escape. The last incursion of 
the Indians into the Mohawk Valley was made October 24, 
1781, by a party of 600 British and Indians, under Major Eoss 
and the notorious Walter K Butler. They made their first ap- 
pearance in the vicinity of Warren Bush, and proceeded to 
Johnstown, engaging in their usual work of plunder and mur- 
der. Here they were attacked by Colonels Willett, Eowley and 
Harper. A severe engag-ement ensued in which the enemy were 
defeated and forced to retreat. Col. Willett pursued, and com- 
ing up with the rear guard at West Canada Creek, a skirmisli 
ensued in which Butler was killed. History has handed down 
his name as one of the most inhuman wretches that ever dis- 
graced humanity. He surpassed the savages in barbarity, ap- 
pearing to revel with delight at the spectacle of human suffer- 
ing. Many a victim was saved from his clutches by Brant, the 
Mohawk Chief This affair practically ended the war in Tryon 
County, and the remaining citizens, who had so often Sufiered 
from savage incursions, Avere permitted to resume in peace their 
accustomed employments, though stripped of almost everything 
except the soil. 

At the close of the war, and when peace once more smiled 
upon the land, emigrants from New England and other parts 
settled in the Mohawk Valley, and the fertile fields so recently 
made desolate by the torch of the savage and the Tory, began to 
bud and blossom, and in a few years almost every trace of the 
war had become obliterated. 

In closing this sketch of Montgomery County we would glad- 
ly give a record of the deeds of the brave men who fought to 
preserve the Government from disintegration at the hands of 
traitors. As the necessary statistics are not at hand, we must 
be content to say that those who volunteered in their country's 
defense, fought worthy of their illustrious sires of the Eevolu- 
tion. If our fathers who founded the Eepublic are worthy of 
all commendation for the sacrifices which they made to found 
so glorious a structure, of not less praise are those worthy, who 
gave their lives that the Eepublic might be preserved and trans- 
mitted unimpaired to our posterity.

A3ISTJEMDAM, named from the place in Holland from 
wliicli many of the early settlers came, was formed from Caugh- 
naicaga, March 12, 1793. Perth, Fulton County, was taken off 
in 1838. The original town of Cavghnawaga was formed March 
7, 1788. It embraced all that part of Montgomery County ly- 
ing north of the Mohawk and east of a line extending from 
'' The Noses" to Canada. In 1793 it was divided into Amster- 
dam, Mayfield, Broodalbin and Johnstown, and the original 
name was discontinued. It lies on the north bank of the Mo- 
hawk^ in the north-east corner of the County. Its surface con- 
sists of the alluvial fiats along the river, and a rolling upland, 
gradually rising for a distance of two miles, and attaining an 
elevation of 300 to 500 feet. The principal streams are the Fort 
Johnson, Chuctenunda and Evas Kil Creeks. The first was 
formerly called Kayaderosseras Creek, and its name was changed 
in honor of Sir William Johnson, 'who erected a residence near 
this stream in 1744, and a saw mill about the same time. It en-° 
ters the Mohawk about three miles west of Amsterdam village. 
Chuctenunda, signifying Twin Sisters, is a name applied to two 
streams flowing into the Mohawk on opposite sides. Evas Kil 
was named in honor of Mrs. Eva Van Alstyne, who was wounded 
and scalped by the Indians in 1755, while crossing this stream. 
The stream enters the Mohawk near the east border. The soil 
in the valley is a deep rich alluvium, and upon the hills it is a 
fertile, gravelly loam. Near Tribes Hill are extensive stone 
quarries, at which stone is now being quarried for the new State 
Capitol. Manufacturing is carried on quite extensively at Am- 
sterdam village and at several other places. 

Amsterdam, (p. v.) formerly called Veedershurgh, was incorpor-

occuj)ied by the society. The frame is of oak and in good con- 
dition ; the outside has undergone some repairs. . Tlie present 
membership is about thirty. 

The first settlement of the town was commenced about 1710 
by Dutch and Palatinates. In 1742 Sir William Johnson built 
a large gtone mansion, about three miles west of the village, and 
resided there for about twenty years, or until he erected John- 
son Hall. This edifice Avas richly ornamented with carvings of 
oak and mahogany, and at the time of its erection was one of 
the finest mansions in the Colony. It was fortified and called 
Fort Johnson. Sir William subsequently built a mill on the 
creek near his residence. Here he was surrounded by a great 
number of dependents and was often visited by great numbers 
of Indians over whom he exerted great influence. Guy John- 
son had a fine stone residence one mile westof the village, called 
Guy Park, and Col. Daniel Clans had another about two miles 
from the village. The first two are still standing. A tract of 
land one mile square was originally attached to each of these 
residences, but the whole was confiscated and sold with the es- 
tates of the other Tories. The two men last named were sons- 
in-law of Sir William Johnson. The first settlers at Amster- 
dam village was Albert Veeder, E. E. De Graff, Mcholas Wilcox 
and William Kline. The first church, (Eeformed Protestant 
Dutch,) was organized in 1792, and became Presbyterian in 1803. 
The first settled minister was Eev. Conrad Ten Eyck in 1799. 
Casper Van Warmer settled in the south-east part of the town 
about 1779, and lived there about eighty years, being 89 years 
old when he died, in 1859. 

The population of Amsterdam in 1865 was 5,135 and its 
area 18,866 acres. 



CAN A JO MAMIE was formed as a district, March 24, 
1772, and as a town March, 1788. Minden was taken off" in 
1798, a part of Eoot in 1823 and a part of Minden in 1849. It 
was called by the Indians Gava-jo-hi-e, and said to signify " a 
kettle shaped hole in the rocks," or "The pOt that washes it- 
self," and refers to a deep hole worn in the rock at the falls on 
the creek, about a mile from its. mouth. It lies on the south 
border of the County, west of the center. The surface consists 
of the flats along the Canajoharie Creek, and the undulating 
uplands from 200 to 600 feet above the valley. The soil is a 
gravelly loam, derived from the disintegration of the underlying 
slate, in some places intermixed with clay. Agriculture is the 
principal }')ursuit of the inhabitants, though there is a limited 
amount of manufactures.

Mapleton and Waterville, in the north-east part, are hamlets. 

The settlement of this town was commenced at a very early 
day, long before the breaking out of the Eevolutionaiy v.'ar. 
As early as 1764 an Indian school was taught here by Philip 
Jonathan. During the Revolution the j^eople generally were 
warm supporters of the cause of the Colonists and were among 
the greatest suiferers of the Mohawk Valley. At the battle of 
Oriskany many of the prominent citizens of the place v/ere kill- 
ed. Among them were Col. Cox, Lieut. Col. Hunt, Mai. Yan 
Slyck, Capt. Henry Devendorf, Robert Crouse, Jacob Bovt-man, 
Andrew Dillenback, Capt. Jacob Leeber, Charles Fox and Lieut. 
Wm. Leeber. While marching to join Gen. Sullivan in IT']'!), 
General Clinton made this place his headquarters for several 
weeks. While here two notorious Tories, Henry Ware and Wm. 
Newbury, Avere arrested and executed as spies. They had. form- 
erly been citizens of the toAvn. A deserter named Titus Avas also 
shot here. With the other towns in the County, Canajoharie 
suffered from incursions of the Tories and Indians and the in- 
habitants were often driven to the greatest extremities. Several 
small forts Avere built Avhich afforded some protection to the 
people. A fort was erected here at an early day as one of tlie 
chain of fortifications to OsAvogo. It Avas iOO feet square and 
fifteen feet high, Avith bastions at the angles, and Avas armed 
Tv'ith several small cannon. In 1781 the house of Philip Van 
Alstyne Avas palisaded and named Fort Van Rensselaer. It is 
noAv called. Fort AVashington, and is in the south part of the vil- 
lage, on the east bank of the creek, nearly opposite the dAvelling , 
of Mrs. Gertrude Moyer. It A\'as constructed of limestone. At 
the Indian burying ground in Canajoharie village, skeletons 
ha\'e been found in a sitting posture, Avith hatchets, arrow heads. 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 83 

beads and other articles used by the Indians. In excavating for 
clay to line the Erie Canal, among other articles found was a 
gold cross about two inches in length. As the skeleton found 
in connection with this appeared to have been buried in a hori- 
ziontal position, it was supposed to be that of a Jesuit mission- 
ary. The lands adjacent to the village were occupied by a small 
tribe of Indians belonging to the Mohawks, and called Canajo- 
harie Tribe. Most of the flats were cleared when first discover- 
ed by the whites, and were cultivated with corn, beans and 
squash. The hills abounded in apple trees. 

The first grist mill in this town stood east of the creek, near 
where the present mill dam is located. It was owned by a man 
named Scrambhng. The next one was built by Col. Hendrick 
Frey, who owned a large tract of land extending to Frey's Bush. 
He was postmaster and lived at this mill site. On the lot now 
owned by Charles W. Knox was a house occupied during the 
Eevolution as a fort, and in which the Committee of Safety of 
Tryon County held their meetings. In 1795 Archibald and 
James Kane established themselves as merchants at this place, 
and for many years were the principal merchants in this part of 
the State. Their early trade consisted largely of potash, grain 
and furs, for which they exchanged dry goods, groceries, &c. 
In 1799 their purchases of potash and wheat amounted to 1130,- 
000. They had a small canal cut from the river to their store 
to admit the passage of flat boats. 

The story of the " Yankee Pass," so often told, is too good to 
be lost, and is in substance as follows :, Judge Henry Staring, 
a magistrate of Herkimer Count}^, saw a man coming from the 
the west on. horse-back one Sunday morning, and as traveling 
that day. was a violation of the statutes of the State except in 
certain cases, the Judge called the traveler to an account. ISFot 
receiving any satisfactory excuse for his conduct, the Judge 
fined him six York shillings. After paying the fine, the travel- 
er, who was a New England Yankee, asked for a pass, that he 
might not be called to account by other magistrates. The 
Judge could not refuse a request so very reasonable and told the. 
traveler to write one and he would sign it. This being done, 
the stranger" proceeded on his way. A few months after this 
the Judge visited the store of Messrs. Kane and was requested 
to pay an order of twenty-five dollars that he had previously 
drawn on them. Being very much surprised at this he at first 
denied having given the order, but the signature was in his own 
handwriting and - could not be denied. Upon further inquiry 
v\^ith reference to the person who presented the order, the 
Judge came to the conclusion ' that it Avas the Yankee Pass, 
that he had signed without reading.

The village was at first called Eoofville, from Martiii Rooi, 
tlie postmaster, who kept a drug and hook store near the pi*e.s» 
ent hridge. John Koof purchased the farm of SCrailibling, who 
built the fii-st niill and a stone house where the Eldredge House 
noy\^ stands-. A hotel was kept in this house for many years, and 
it was «l rendezvous for recruits in the war of 1812-15. Tlie 
first physician who settled in the town was Dr. Eights, who 
afterwards went to Albany. Drs. John Atwater and Libbeus 
Doty afterwards opened offices in the village. 

Among the early settlers, whose names are remembered by 
some still living, are Rev. Jonas Gross, Ool. Yates, John Seeber, 
Conrad Seeber, General John Keyes, Oapt. Eoger Mills, Eben- 
ezer Hillard, Frederick Mills, Charles Powell, Noah Dodge, Col. 
Elisha Paniels, Dr. Simeon Marcy, Abijah White, Joseph Jes- 
sup, Deacon Kimball, Eev. Gisbrge Elliot, Gideon Elliott, John 
St. John, Elisha Taylor, James Knox and Jacob Ehle. Gen. 
Keyes, Capt. Mills and Ebene?;er Hibbard purchased one thous- 
and acres of land where the village of Ames is now situated, at 
three shillings per acre. At that time there was no clearing on 
the land except at a place known as Taylor Hill. . Taylor had 
cleared about fifty acres and made other improvements, having 
some twenty years previously purchased of a Squatter. These 
new purchasers came on and endeavored to expel him by force, 
but not being disposed to be ejected in that way they finally 
bought him off". , " . 

Jacob Ehle and James Knox settled near Mapleton, in 1791, 
on the farm now occupied by Aaron Ehle. They paid 12.62 an 
acre for their land. John White, born in the town in 
1785, is the oldest person now living in the town who was 
born there. Benjamin Button settled just after the close of the 
Revolution, on the farm now occupied by Amos Button. He 
was a soldier in the war. Thomas Conklin settled where Wil- 
liam D. Watson now lives, and kept a store there for forty years. 
Samuel Tillotson settled in Ames in 1781; Esquire Hill, a 
soldier of the Revolution, settled where S. Hill now lives ; Adam 
Garlock, a Revolutionary soldier, was taken prisoner, afterwards 
settled where his grandsons Reuben and Adam now live. George 
Dunkle settled previous to the Revolution where Henry Dunkle 
now lives. He purchased four hundred acres of land, served 
in the army, was shot in the left eye, the ball coming out be- 
hind the left ear. He died in the town in 1845. Adam Flint 
settled before the Revolution, where Levi Flint now lives. 
Nicholas Van Alstyne settled east of the Round Top, was a Lieu- 
tenant in the war, drew a pension and finally died in town. 

Among the interesting trials that have taken place in this 
County was one that occurred in 1828. Henry Garlock brought 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 85 

an action for trespass against Henry J. Failing to recover the 
value of liis negro slave, Jack, who, it was alleged, the defend- 
ant had wrongfully and maliciously killed. Garlock had a 
deed of the negro, the consideration being $350. Failing ad- 
mitted killing the negro but that it was through a mistake. 
The circumstances as they were proved in Court were as fol- 
lows : On the night of the homicide the negroes had a gather- 
ing near the river below Dutchtown, became intoxicated and 
broke up at a late hour. Jack and one of his companions start- 
ed for home, on the road passing defendant's house. During 
the night a black man called at Failing's house saying that he 
had seen a bear a short distance from the house. Failing took 
his rifle and, accompanied by his dog, started in search of 
the bear, which he soon discovered sitting upon his haunches 
about ten rods distant. The dog refused to advance, and Fail- 
ing could see by the dim starlight the eyes of the bear. Taking 
good aim between the eyes he fired. A terrible groan, a struggle 
and all was still. A light was procured, and on proceeding to 
the spot there lay Jack, stone dead. It appeared that the negro 
had taken a keg from a trough where it had been placed to 
soak, and seated himself upon it in the middle of the road, with 
his back towards Failing, who mistook the bright buttons upon 
his coat for the eyes of a bear. Eminent counsel were employ- 
ed on both sides, and the result was a verdict for the plaintiff 
for 1250. 

In 1798 a duel was fought between Barney Eoseboom and 
Archibald Kane. The affair had its origin at the gaming table. 
The parties were the two combatants and Henry Frey Cox. 
During the playing Kane became indebted to Eoseboom for 
1100, and Cox to Kane for the same amount. Kane proposed 
to cancel his indebtedness by a transfer of the obligation of 
Cox to Eoseboom. This Eoseboom refused to accept, 
and Kane, considering himself insulted, challenged him to 
mortal combat. The duel was fought upon the hill near Kane's 
dwelling, and the weapons used "horse pistols." Kane was 
wounded in the arm at the first fire. The combatants then 
made up and became warm friends afterwards. 

Among the early incidents related is the following account of 
a marriage in which Esquire Bowman officiated. While working 
in his hay field a couple came to his house on horseback to be 
married. The party were sent to the hay field where they 
found the Esquire upon a load of hay. Wishing to dispatch the 
business with as little trouble as possible he requested the parties 
to join hands. He then said, " Hans, you dake dis voman to be 
your vife ?" " Ya," replied the expectant groom. " Lisbet, you 
clake dis Hans to be your husbant ?" " Ya, ich will." " Den

I make you one vlesli and one peefe. Now vat man has put

ceremony. 

The population of the town in 18G5 was 4,248, and the area 
24,764 acres. 

CHABLESTOJ^ was formed from the old town of Mo- 
hawk, March 12, 1793. The remaining part of Mohawk was 
organized as Florida, and the original town abolished. Glen 
and a part of Boot were taken off" in 1823. It lies upon the 
south border of the County and is the only town that ctoes not 
border on the Mohawk. It occupies a portion of the high pla- 
teau region immediately west of Schoharie Creek, and the greater 
part of the surface is an undulating upland. On the east it 
descends in steep declivities to the valley of the creek, at this 
place, a narrow ravine. The streams are small. The soil is a 
fertile loam, mixed with clay, and is especially adapted to spring 
grains and dairying. The town has some manufactures, consist- 
ing chiefly of sash and blinds, woolen goods and flour. 

Burtonville, (p. v.) in the south part of the town, on Schoha- 
rie Creek, contains two churches, two hotels, two stores, a wool- 
en factory, a grist mill, a saw mill, a sash and blind factor}-, two 
carriage shops, three blacksmith shops and 36 dwellings. 

The Woolen Mill of A. G. Eandall runs one set of cards and 
240 spindles. 

The Flouring Mill of C. M. Satterly conta,ins five runs of stones 
and grinds about 50,000 bushels annually. 

The Christian Church at Burtonville was organized December 
23, 1865, with 18 members, and now numbers 60. 

The Methodist Church Avas organized in 1857 and now num- 
bers 90 members. 

The village received its name from Judah Burton, i\\Q first 
settler.

The Cheese Factory at the same place uses the milk of 350 
cows and makes about 100,000 pounds of cheese annually. 

The Baptist Church at Charleston was organized in 1793, and 
now has 80 members. Elijah Herrick was the first pastor. 

A portion of this town was included in Gorr^fs Patent, a tract 
of 25,000 acres granted to William Corry and others in 1637 ; 
and other parts were included in the S'tone Heap Patent, granted 
to John Bowen and others in 1770; and Thomas Machhi' s Pat- 
ent of 1787. 

The first settlements were made previous to the Eevolution. 
Among the early settlers were Eobert Winchell, Nathan Tracy, 
Aden Brownley, Abia Beaman, Henry Mapes, Abner Throop, 
David and Nathan Kimball, Thomas Machin, Captain John 
Stanton, John Eddy and Ezekiel Tracy. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 1,687, and its area 
26,326 acres. 



was formed from Mohawk, March 12, 1793. 
It lies in the east part of the County, south of the Mohawk. 
The surface is chiefly a rolling upland, 600 feet above the val- 
ley. Bean Hill, in the south-west part of the town, is the high- 
est land in the Comity. Most of the declivities bordering on 
the streams are steep. The principal streams are Chuctenunda 
and Cowillaga Creeks. The soil is a clayey loam and well 
adapted to dairjdng. Several sulphur springs are found in the 
town, the most noted of which is at Scotch Bush. The Erie 
Canal croses the Schoharie Creek between this town and Glen 
on a costly aqueduct. Broom-corn is one of the principal pro- 
ducts, and brooms are extensively manufactured. 

Port JacTcson (p. v.) is situated on the Mohawk and the Erie 
Canal, opposite Amsterdam, and contains a church, a hotel, a 
foundry and machine shop, a saw mill, a broom factory, a dry 
dock, a tannery, several stores and mechanic shops and about 
400 inhabitants. 

Minaville, (p. v.) on Chuctenunda Creek, near the center of 
the town, contains two churches, viz : Methodist and Reformed ; 
a hotel, two stores, a grist mill with two runs of stones, a saw 
mill, a fanning mill manufactory, two wagon shops and about 
200 inhabitants. 

The Reformed Church of Minaville was reorganized by a con- 
solidation of the old Reformed Dutch Church and the Remsons 
Bush Society, and the new church edifice erected on the pres- 
ent site in 1808. The number of members at the reorganization 
was 20; the present number is 140. The old Reformed Dutch 
Society was organized about the year 1784.

The Methodist Church edifice was erected in 1836. The society- 
was organized several years previons to that, and now nnmbers 
about 60 members. 

Fort Hunter, (p. v.) at the mouth of Schoharie Creek, and con- 
taining a church, is a hamlet. 

Wellsville Mills are located on Schoharie Creek, about six 
miles south of Fort Hunter. The mill contains one run of stones 
and one upright saw. 

Stewart'' s Paper Mill is about a a mile above the preceding. 
This is a new enterprise and is not yet in operation. 

The Empire Cheese Factory of Alfred Peck is at Miller's Cor- 
ners, near the south line of the town, and makes about 150,000 
pounds of cheese annually. 

Florida Cheese Factory, near Minaville, is leased by Mr. Peck 
and makes about 170,000 pounds annually. 

Devendorfs Cheese Factory, about three miles south of Fort 
Hunter, makes about 113,000 pounds of cheese annually. 

MicJcWs Saw Mill, about one mile south of Scotch Bush, runs 
one upright saw. 

Scotch Church is a hamlet situated chiefly in Schenectady 
County. The Church from which the hamlet was named is in 
Florida. The Associate Church was organized about the close 
of the last century, and a house of worship was erected about 
the same time. It was rebuilt in 1846, and in 1858 it became 
known as the United Presbyterian Church, The number of 
members is about 125. 

Scotch Bush, (p. V.) situated on the Chuctenunda Creek, about 
six miles south of Port Jackson, contains a hotel, a store, a shoe 
shop, a wagon shop, a blacksmith shop, a cider and vinegar fac- 
tory and about 100 inhabitants. About 600 barrels of cider and 
100 of vinegar are made annually. Near the village is a sulphur 
spring, known as the "Powder Spring," which has obtained 
some notoriety for its medicinal qualities. Considering the ac- 
commodations afforded to visitors, it has been quite a resort in 
former years. The prospect now is that it will pass into the 
hands of those who will provide first-class accommodation and 
make it a delightful summer resort. The place received its 
name from the fact that it was originally settled by the Scotch. 

The first white settlement in the County is supposed to have 
been made in this town. Fort Hunter was built in 1711. The 
contracts for this and one at Oswego were taken by G-arret Sym- 
ouce, Barent and Hendrick Vroman, John Wemp and Arent 
Van Petten, of Schenectady. The walls at first were twelve feet 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 89 

liigh and inclosed a sj^ace 150 feet square. It was afterwards 
enlarged and strengthened. Within the inelosure was an edifice 
called Queen Anne's Chapel, to which was attached a parsonage 
built of stone. This chapel was for a long time under the 
charge of the " Society for propagating the Gospel in Foreign 
Parts," and a missionary and Indian school were supported here. 
The chapel was demolished in 1820 to make room for the canal. 
The parsonage was sold several years ago for $1,500 and the pro- 
ceeds were divided between the Episcopal churches of Port Jack- 
son and Johnstown. Soon after the erection of the chapel it 
was furnished with a valuable set of communion plate by Queen 
Anne. The Fort was garrisoned until after the French War, 
when it was abandoned. During the Eevolution the chapel was 
inclosed by palisades and converted into a fort, defended by can- 
non. 

One of the Mohawk castles was located at this place. During 
the raid of Sir John Johnson, in October, 1780, all the buildings 
in this vicinity were burned and all the stacks of hay and grain 
except a few known to belong to Tories. The Whigs, exasper- 
ated at the destruction of their own property, set fire to that of 
the Tories, and the whole region was one of complete desolation. 

Several newly arrived Oerman immigrants settled in the town 
before the close of the war, and they were soon followed by 
Scotch and Irish families. The first store at Port Jackson was 
kept by William Bent. The first bridge of any importance over 
Schoharie Creek was built in 1796, by Major Isaiah DePuy. 
The route south of the Mohawk was the principal thorough- 
fare through this County for a good many years. An Indian 
school was taught at Fort Hunter as early as 1769. The first 
preacher after the war was Rev. Thomas Eomeyn, of the Re- 
formed Dutch Church, in 1784 

The Reformed Church of Port Jackson was organized Septem- 
ber 8, 1850. Its first officers were John Fremyre, Don C. Bent 
and Cornelius Phillips, elders ; William McClumpha and Fred- 
erick Yedder, deacons. The Consistory of the Church comprised 
all its members at the first communion. At the second the 
number had increased to 25. The first pastor was Rev. G. L. 
Roof, who was succeeded in 1855 by Rev. C. Gates. After serv- 
ing the Church one year he was succeeded by Rev. I. G. Duryea, 
who labored successfully until the outbreak of the Rebellion, 
when he resigned to accept the position of chaplain in the 
army. In July, 1863, Rev. H. M. Voorhees accepted a call to 
this Church, and labored as its pastor eighteen months. In 
May, 1865, Rev. A. M. Quick, the present pastor, was ordained 
and installed as its pastor. The present membership is 102.

The population of the town in 1865 was 2,835, and its area 
31,167 acres. 

GTiMWf named in honor of Jacob S. Glen, a prominent citi- 
zen of the town, was formed from Charleston, April 10, 1823. 
It lies on the south bank of the Mohawk and west of Schoharie 
Creek. Its surface is chiefly uplands about 600 feet high, de- 
scending by abrupt decliyities to the narrow intervales along 
the streams. The principal streams are Auries Creek, which 
flows into the Mohawk, and Irish Creek, flowing into the Scho- 
harie. The first narfied is the Dutch for Aaron's Creek, and re- 
ceived its name from an Indian in the vicinity. The Indian 
name was Ogh-rack-ie. The soil is a clayey loam, for the most 
part, and very productive. One mile east of Voorheesville is a 
chalybeate siDring. Attempts have been made to obtain iron 
but without success. Upon Schoharie Creek, about two miles 
above its mouth, is a high bank formed by a land slide and call- 
ed by the Indians, Co-davgh-ri-ty, signifying " Steep Bank," or 
" Perpendicular Wall." 

Fultonville, (]o. v.] named in honor of Robert Eulton, is located 
on the Mohawk River and the Erie Canal, adjoining the cor- 
porate limits of Florida. It was incorporated in 1846 and con- 
tains two churches, viz., Methodist and Reformed ; two hotels, 
a union school, a steam flouring, planing and plaster mill, two 
steam saw mills, a steam sash and blind ftictory, a grain elevator, 
a furnace and machine shop, several other manufactories of va- 
rious kinds and about 1,300 inhabitants. John W. Wilson is 
the president of the village. 

The Methodist Church at Fultonville was organized in 1855 
with twelve members. IST. Gr. Spaulding was the first pastor. 
The church edifice was erected the same year, at a cost of $6,- 
000. The number of members at present is 40. E. Baker is 
the pastor. 

Glen, (p. V.) located near the center of the town, contains two 
churches, a hotel, a store, a tannery, a wagon shop, a cheese fac- 
tory, making 144,000 pounds annually ; two blacksmith shops 
and about 125 inhabitants. 

The Reformed Church of Glen was organized at an early day 
and the church edifice erected in 1795. A new edifice is about 
to be erected at a cost of 112,000. The present membership is 
99 ; the pastor is Rev. F. V. Van Vranken. 

Atiriesville, (p. v.) near the mouth of Auries Creek, is a canal 
village and contains about 200 inhabitants. 

Van Blip's Cheese Factory, located about three-fourths of a 
mile west of Fultonville, makes about 50,000 pounds of cheese 
annually.

Mill Point is a liamlet ©n Sclioharie Creek, in the south-east 
part of the town, and contains a hotel, a store, a grist mill, a saw 
mill and a broom factory. 

The Union Star Grist Mill of James J. Faulkner is a framed 
building, nearly new, has three runs of stones and a capacity for 
grinding 800 bushels per day. 

The land bordering upon the river was granted in ten patents 
to different persons from 1722 to 1726, and most of the re- 
mainder was granted to James De Lancey in 1737. Peter 
Quackenboss settled on Scott's Patent, near Auries Creek, soon 
after it was secured, and was probably the first white inhabitant 
of the town. About 1740 sixteen Irish families, under the pat- 
ronage of Sir William Johnson, settled on Corry's Patent, a few 
miles south-west of Fort Hunter. After making improvements 
to some extent, they finally returned to Ireland in consequence 
of threatened disturbances by the Indians. A son of the first 
settlisr married Annie, daughter of Captain John Scott, the 
patentee, and settled about a mile east of Fultonville, on what 
was formerly the County poor farm. Their son John, born 
about 1725, was the first white child born on the south side of 
the Mohawk, between Fort Hunter and G-erman Flats. Corne- 
lius Putnam settled at Codaughrity, Richard Hoflf one mile west 
of Glen, Nicholas Gardiner and John Van Epps on the Mo- 
hawk, and Charles Yan Epps at Fultonville. A small block 
house was erected here near the close of the Revolution. 

The first school was taught at the house of J. S. Quackenboss 
by a man by the name of Hazard. William Quackenboss kept 
the first inn at Auriesville, in 1797, and Myndert Starin kept 
one at Fultonville at an earlier date. The first store at Grlen 
w^as kept by John Smith, in 1797, and one was kept on the Mo- 
hawk, east of Fultonville, by Isaac Quackenboss. Peter and Si- 
mon Mabie built a saw mill and carding machine in 1797, and 
Peter Quackenboss a grist mill, on Auries Creek, soon after. 

This town was the scene of many interesting incidents during 
the Revolutionary war. It furnished its full proportion of vic- 
tims for the Oriskany battle and for the Indian incursions dur- 
ing that long and bloody struggle for Independence. In the 
fall of 1779 a noted Tory by the name of George Cuck, who had 
frequently led parties of Indians in their incursions upon the 
homes of his old neighbors, was seen lurking about and was 
fired upon at one time and narrowly escaped death. It was sup- 
posed that he had returned to Canada, but towards spring it be- 
came known that he was concealed at the house of John Van 
Zuyler, a relative and brother Tory. A party surrounded the 
house, dragged Cuck from his hiding place and shot him, and 



92 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 



arrested Van Zuyler and sent him to Albany a prisoner. In the 
fall of 1780 the whole settlement was ravaged and many of the 
people were murdered. On one occasion Isaac Quackenboss was 
out hunting and discovered three Indians sitting on a log. He 
fired, killing two and mortally wounding the third. The last 
council between the Indians and Americans held in this County 
previous to the Eevolution, was in October, 1775, about two 
miles east of Fultonville. 

The first church (Re£ Prot. Dutch) was formed at Glen ; Eev. 
Henry V. Wyckoff was the first pastor. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 2,737, and its area 
21,373 acres. 

MIN'iy^Wwas formed from Canajoharie, March 2, 1798. 
Danube, Herkimer Co., was taken ofi" in 1817. It lies upon the 
south bank of the Mohawk and is the most western town in the 
County. Its surface is principally an undulating upland, with 
steep declivities bordering upon the streams, the chief of which 
are the Otsquaga, and its tributary the Otsquene. Prospect 
Hill, called by the Indians, Ta-ra-jo-rhies which is said to signify 
" Hill of Health," or " Port on a Hill," lies upon the Otsquaga, 
opposite Port Plain. The soil is a fine quality of gravelly and 
clayey loam and is especially adapted to grazing. The dairy 
products of this town are very large, surpassing those of any 
other town in the County. 

Fort Plain, (p. v.) incorporated April 5, 1832, is situated on 
the Mohawk Eiver and Erie Canal, about sixty miles from Al- 
bany. A bridge across the Mohawk connects it with the IST, Y. 
C. E. E. It contains many wealthy citizens and more fine resi- 
dences than any other place of the same size in this vicinity. It 
has four churches, viz., Methodist, Universalist, Dutch and 
Dutch Ee formed; a commercial college, a very extensive steel 
spring and axle manufactory, a printing office, various mills 
and manufactories, and about 2,500 inhabitants. It received its 
name from " Fort Plain," a block house formerly situated on the 
hill a little west of the village. 

Mindenville, (p. v.) on the canal in the west part of the town, 
' contains a hotel, a store, a shoe shop, a blacksmith shop and 
about 25 dwellings. 

Ford's Bush (Minden p. o.) is in the extreme west part of the 
town, about eight miles from Fort Plain, and contains two 
churches, viz : Universalist and Lutheran, a store, a blacksmith 
shop, a wagon shop, a school and about twenty dwellings. There 
is a fine cemetery belonging to the village. 

Frey^s Bush, (p. o.) about two miles south of Fort Plain, con- 
tains a cheese factory, two blacksmith shops, a shoe shop and

about a dozen houses. It received its name from John Frey, a 
lawyer and leading patriot, who resided here during the Revolu- 
tion. 

Hallsville, (p. o.) about four and a half miles west from Eort 
Plain, on Otsquaga Creek and the Cooperstown gravel road, con- 
tains a sawmill, a gristmill, a blacksmith shop and about a dozen 
dwellings. 

Hessville is a hamlet about five miles south of Fort Plain. 

In this town are found the remains of one of those ancient 
fortifications which are so common in Central and Western New 
York, and throughout the Western States, indicating that it 
was inhabited long prior to the advent of the Indians. These 
mounds are the most easterly of any of the kind yet discovered. 
They are about four miles south of Fort Plain, on a tongue of 
land formed by the valleys of Otsquaga Creek and one of its 
tributaries. This tongue is one hundred feet" above the streams, 
and the declivities are very steep. Across the tongue, at its nar- 
rowest part, is a curved line of breastworks, 240 feet in length, 
inclosing an area of about seven acres. A gigantic pine, six 
feet in diameter, stood upon one end of the embankment, show- 
ing that the Avork must have been of great antiquity. During 
the Revolutionary war a fort was erected upon the high plain, 
near the site of the present village. Though a sort of defense 
was erected in the early part of the war, the Fort proper was 
not erected until 1778. Its form was that of an irregular quad- 
rangle, with earth and log bastions, embrasures at each corner, 
and barracks and a strong block-house within, The block- 
house was erected in 1780 under the supervision of a French 
engineer, employed by Col. Gansevoort. It was octagonal in 
form, three stories high and constructed of hewn timbers fifteen 
inches square. The first story was thirty feet in diameter, the 
second forty, and the third fifty, each story projecting five feet 
over the next loAver. In the first story three or four cannon 
were placed and all were provided with port-holes for musketrj^ 
In the floor of each projection were port-holes for firing upon 
an enemy below. There was a stockade about two miles south- 
west of Fort Plain, called Fort Clyde, in honor of Col. Clyde of 
the Tryon County Militia ; it was on land now owned by H. G. 
Nellis & Sons. Another was situated about the same distance 
north-west, called Fort Plank, or Blank, as it stood upon land 
owned by Frederick Blank. The latter and Fort Plain have 
been confounded. 

In August, 1780, Brant with about 500 Tories and Indians 
made an attack upon the settlement while most of the troops 
under Col. Gansevoort were absent guarding provisions which 



94 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 

were on their way to supply Fort Schiiyler. Taking advantage 
of this, Brant made a circuit through the woods, reached their 
rear and fell upon the Fort. On their approach a cannon was 
fired from the Fort hy a woman, women and children being the 
principal occupants. In their approach they burned eyery barn 
and dwelling, destroyed the crops and carried off everything 
valuable. The house of Johannes Lipe was saved from plunder 
and fire by the coolness and courage of his wife. She had been 
busy carrying her most valuable articles from her house to a 
place of concealment and had made several deposits there. The 
last time she returned, she met at the gate two Indians. Being 
familiar with their language, she inquired if they knew anj^thing 
of her two brothers who were among the Tories that fled to 
Canada. Fortunately the Indians had seen them, and suppos- 
ing her to be a Tory they walked ofi" and the house was saved. 
The church was burned, and a brass ball upon the spire attract- 
ed the eager gaze of the savages, who supposed that it was gold. 
When it fell they rushed for the prize, scattered the burning 
timbers and seized the glittering ball, but soon learned at the 
cost of blistered hands that " all is not gold that glitters." In a 
letter to Gov. Clinton, dated August 6th, 1770, CoL Clyde gives 
the following account of the devastation. " On the second day 
of this inst. Joseph Brant, at the head of about four or five hun- 
dred Indians and Tories, broke in upon the settlements, and 
laid the best part of the district in ashes, and killed sixteen of 
the inhabitants, that we have found, took between fifty and six- 
ty prisoners, mostly women and children, twelve of whom have 
been sent back. They have killed and driven away with them 
upwards of three hundred head of cattle and horses ; have 
burnt fifty-three dwelling houses, besides some out-houses and as 
many barns ; one very elegant church, and gristmill and two 
small forts that the women fled out of. They have burned all the 
inhabitants' weapons and implements of husbandry, so that they 
are left in a miserable condition. They have nothing left to 
supjoort themselves but what grain they have growing, and that 
they cannot save for want of tools to work with, and very feAV to 
be got here." 

Among the incidents of this incursion, the following is related 
by Mrs. Dunckel, mother of John P. Dunckel, who now resides 
at Frey's Bush, near the site of Fort Clyde. Peter Dunckel, the 
grandfather of Mrs. D., came from Germany in 1766 and settled 
where his descendants now reside. Two uncles of Mrs. D., Pe- 
ter and Franz, were splitting timber for a wagon, about half a 
mile from the block house, when suddenly the Indians fired 
upon them and rushed forward with uplifted tomahawks to 
complete the massacre. Peter was wounded and captured, but 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 95 

Franz, unharmed, started for the Fort, which he reached in 
safety, bnt fell exhansted at the entrance and was dragged in by 
the inmates. The women of the Fort, by their energetic de- 
fense, deceived the attacking party and they withdreAV. Peter 
D. was taken to Canada, where, after a year's captivity, he was 
exchanged. A Mrs. Pletts was taken at the same time. Her 
house was near the Fort, and while seated under a tree near by, 
she was surprised by the approach of the Indians and ran, pur- 
sued by a single savage. Being closely pursued she endeavored 
to escape by running around a tree, but the Indian stopped and 
she ran into his open arms. She was taken to Canada and treat- 
ed quite well ; was assigned to the duty of cook for her captors. 
She returned at the close of the war, and after the death of her 
husband, married Peter Dunckel, her fellow captive. When 
taken prisoner she left a baby six months old, which was over- 
looked by the Indians. In one of Brant's incursions into the 
Mohawk Valley, he came down through what is known as 
Dutch Town, in Minden, and with torch and tomahawk laid 
waste the country. After an attack upon Fort ISTellis, a block 
house near St. Johnsville, they crossed over to Fort Willett, a 
block house built by the Lipes, Countrymans and Windeckers, 
on land now owned by William Timerman. An old tree near 
the residence of D. T. Timerman is pointed out as the spot 
where the wife of Dr. Frame was killed. Their house was back 
of Timerman's and would probably have been passed by unseen, 
but Mrs. F. hearing the yells of the savages, started for the Fort ; 
she was discovered, tomahawked and scalped. At the stone 
house of Henry Seeber, on Sand Hill, above Fort Plain, a boy, 
John A. Lipe, was doing picket duty. When the alarm was 
given, the women fled to the Fort, followed by the men, who 
were at work in the field. Dinner was already prepared and 
upon the table ready for the laborers ; this the enemy disposed 
of and then set fire to the house. The wood work was burned 
out and the walls remained until purchased by Mr. Lipe, who 
rebuilt it. In 1848 it was taken down to make way for the 
house now occupied by Mr. Adam Lipe. 

The early settlers of this town were Germans, among whom 
were the Devendorf, Wagoner and G-ros families, Andrew Keller 
and Henry H. Smith. John Abeel, an Indian trader, settled 
here in 1748. In his previous intercourse with the Indians, 
Abeel had married the daughter of a Seneca chief, after the In- 
dian fashion, and the offspring of this marriage was the famous 
chief, Cornplanter. Abeel afterwards married a white woman, 
and at the commencement of the war was living on his farm. 
During the incursion of 1780 he was taken prisoner, and Vvdiile 
expecting death at the hands of the Indians, Cornplanter ad- 



96 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 



dressed him as father and assured him of his safety. He was 
given his choice to accompany the Indians under the protection 
of his son or return to his white family. He chose the latter. 
After the war, Cornplanter visited him and was received by his 
Fort Plain relatives with all the civilities due to his rank and 
his manly bearing. 

Henry Hayes, a German, kept the first school in the town ; 
Isaac Countryman built the first grist mill after the war, and 
Isaac Paris kept the first store about the same time. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 4,637, and its area 
29,458 acres. 

MOHAWK was formed from Johnstown, April 4, 1837. 
It lies upon the north bank of the Mohawk Eiver and near the 
center of the north border of the County. The surface is un- 
even and gradually rises from the river to the north line of the 
town, where it attains an elevation of about 400 feet above the 
valley. The ]3rincij)al streams are Cayadutta and Dadenoscara 
Creeks. The soil generally is a good quality of gravelly loam. 

Fonda, (p. v.) named in honor of Douw Fonda, who settled 
here in 1751, is pleasantly situated on the Mohawk Eiver and 
N. Y. C. E. E. It is the County Seat and contains besides the 
County buildings, three churches, viz., Eeformed, Methodist 
and Episcopal ; four hotels, two flouring mills, a bank, a news- 
paper printing office, several other manufactories of various 
kinds and about 1,800 inhabitants. The principal business 
street was paved during the last season. 

The Cayadutta Mill has a capacity for grinding 150 barrels of 
flour daily, and the Empire State Mill 700 bushels of corn daily. 
A plaster mill and saw mill are owned by the same parties, G-. 
F. Mills & Co. 

Zion Episcopal Church of Fonda is a stone structure in the 
gothic style of architecture. It was consecrated by Et. Eev. Wm. 
C. Doane, D. D., May 29, 1869. It will seat about 200 persons 
and cost between $5,000 and $6,000. Eev. E. T. Howard is the 
present pastor. 

The Methodist Church Avas organized in 1842 with seven mem- 
bers, under the pastoral charge of T. W. Pearson. The church 
edifice was erected in 1844 at a cost of 14,000. The present 
membership is 116, and the present pastor, P. P. Harrower. 

Tribes Hill, (p. v.) on the border of Amsterdam, is partly in 
this town and contains about 400 inhabitants. 

A Fair Ground of fifteen acres is located a short distance east 
of Fonda. 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 97 

The Saw Mill and Cheese Box Factory of Tliomas S. Sammons 
are located on the north border of the town, on Cayadutta 
Creek, 

MohaioJc Cheese Factory is located about five miles west of 
Fonda, and makes about 100,000 pounds annually. 

Mohaich Valley Cheese Factory, about two miles west of Fonda, 
makes about 80,000 pounds annually ; and Sweetzer Hill Factory 
about 100,000 pounds. 

The site of the present Tillage of Fonda was called Caughna- 
waga by the Indians, a name signifying " Stone in the Water," or 
" At the Eapids." It was one of the fayorite resorts of the Mo- 
hawks. It was the scene of some of the earliest labors of the 
French Jesuits among the Five Nations, two of whom lost their 
lives here in 1646. The names of the first white settlers are not 
known. Patents of one thousand acres each, on the Mohawk, 
were granted to Nicholas Hansen and his brother Hendrick, 
July 12, 1713. Nicholas Hansen settled at Tribes Hill previous 
to 1725, and others by the name of Fonda, Vanderworker, Dox- 
tader and Fisher, settled at an early day. Among other resi- 
dents of the town before the Eevolution were Col. John Butler 
and his son, Walter N. Butler, who gained an infamous notoriety 
by their inhuman atrocities inflicted upon their old whig neigh- 
bors. The " Butler Place," where these infamous Tories resided, 
was about a mile north-east of Fonda, on an open eminence 
overlooking the Mohawk, and now owned by Mr. Wilson. Alex- 
ander White, Colonial Sheriff of Tryon County, resided on the 
present site of the Court House. He was a zealous Tory and 
was obliged to flee to Canada. He was succeeded by John Frey, 
appointed by the Provincial Congress. 

The incursion of Sir John Johnson, in May, 1780, fell chiefly 
on the settlements of Tribes Hill and Caughnawaga. The de- 
tachment against Tribes Hill was led by Henry and Wm. Bow- 
en, Avho had lived in the vicinity. The principal object of the 
incursion was to obtain the silver plate and other valuables 
which Sir John was obliged to leave on his hasty retreat from 
Johnson Hall in 1776. The enemy proceeded to the house of 
Garret Putnam, a stanch Whig. "Unknown to the invaders, 
he had rented his house to two Tories, named Grort and Platto. 
The assailants broke into the house in the night, scalped the 
two men and did not learn of their mistake until daylight, sup- 
posing that they had killed Putnam and his son instead of two 
of their own friends. From this point they proceeded up the 
river, plundering and burning the buildings and murdering 
their old friends and neighbors. Several slaves and white male 
prisoners were taken to Canada. The women were not generally 
molested on this occasion.

Tlie enemy met a warm reception at the house of Col. Fred. 
Fisher. The Colonel's wife and children had been sent to Schen- 
ectady for safety, and his two sisters and an old negro fled to 
the woods and escaped on the first alarm, leaving the Colonel, 
his mother and two brothers, John and Harmon. The Indians 
made a desperate attack upon the house and the inmates respond- 
ed by a constant fire, until their ammunition gave out. They 
then all retreated to the chamber except John, who stationed 
himself in the stairway and defended it with a hatchet until he 
had killed seven Indians. He then retreated above and, slip- 
ping upon some peas which lay upon the floor, he fell and was 
dispatched with a tomahawk. Harmon leaped from the win- 
dow to put out the fire that had been applied to the roof, and 
while standing on the fence was shot dead. The mother was 
knocked down with the breech of a gun and left for dead. The 
Colonel was also knocked down by a tomahawk, dragged down 
stairs by his hair and thrown upon the ground, when an Indi^an 
leaped upon him and drew a knife across his throat, cutting it 
from ear to ear, as was supposed, then cutting around the scalp, 
seized it with his teeth and tore it from the head, then giving 
him a blow upon the shoulder with a hatchet, he fled. The 
Colonel had retained his senses through all this mangling, and 
his throat, protected by a leather belt worn inside of his cravat, 
was only slightly wounded. As soon as the Indians disappeared, 
he arose, went up stairs and brought down his mother, placed 
her in a chair and leaned her against the fence, then brought 
down the body of his brother John and laid it on the grass. By 
this time he became so much exhausted from the loss of blood 
and the wounds that he had received, that he lay down to die, 
as he supposed. The old negro and the girls returned in a short 
time and found the house burned and the dead and wounded as 
described. By signs, the Colonel made known his desire for 
water, which was brought, and his head bathed, and after drink- 
ing a little, his speech was restored. A Tory named Clement 
passsing by, the negro asked him what he should do. The re- 
ply in German was, "Let the rebel die." The negro, following 
the directions of the Colonel, caught some colts which had nev- 
er been broken, harnessed them to the wagon and took him to 
the house of Putnam, at Tribe's Hill. From this-pkce the whole 
family, including the bodies of his brothers, were conveyed to 
Schenectady in a canoe, arriving about sunset. Here for the first 
time he had his wounds dressed. After five years of suffering- 
he nearly recovered from the effects of his wounds. He erected 
a new house on the site of the old one, and lived twenty-nine 
years after receiving his wounds, holding the office of First 
Judge of the County for several years. His mother also recov-

t 

ered from ber wounds and lived with him. After the close of 
the war, the Indian who scalped him returned to the settlement 
and stopped at a tavern kept by a Tory at Tribes Hill. The 
wife of the landlord sent word to the house of Col. Fisher that 
the Indian was there and would soon call at his house. The 
family, knowing that the Colonel had sworn revenge on the In- 
dian, and not wishing further bloodshed, kept the news from 
him. As they were all in the front room about the time the In- 
dian was expected, they upset a pot of lye and requested the 
Colonel to go into the back room until it should be cleaned up. 
The Indian came to the door soon after and was met by the old 
lady who addressed him in the Indian language, told him her 
son's intentions and pointed to a gun which was always loaded 
in readiness for him. The Indian listened, gave a grunt and ran 
away with all possible speed. 

In the fall of 1780, Sir John made another incursion and de- 
stroyed what was left at the previous one and all that had been 
rebuilt. 

The first birth north of the river, of which there is any record, 
was that of Henry Hansen. A man by the name of Collins 
taught the first school, in 1774. Jellis Fonda is said to have 
been the first merchant west of Schenectady. He carried on an 
extensive trade with the whites at Forts Schuyler and Stanwix, 
and the forts at Oswego, Niagara and Schlosser. His sales con- 
sisted chiefly of blankets, trinkets, ammunition and rum, and 
his purchases consisted of peltries, ginseng and potash. At one 
time, previous to the Eevolution, his ledger showed an indebted- 
ness of $10,000 in the Indian country. 

John Chaley was an early settler at Tribes Hill. Douw Fon- 
da was living at the time of the Eevolution on the flat between 
the turnpike and river, a short distance east of the road leading 
to the bridge. Here on the 22d of May, 1780, he was murdered 
by the Indians under Sir John Johnson. He was eighty-four 
years old and had been on the most friendly terms with Sir 
William Johnson and had greatly aided him at the time of his 
settlement. His three sons, John, Jellis and Adam, were stanch 
Whigs and resided in the neighborhood. 

In the spring of 1775, after the Tories of Johnstown had 
made a demonstration against the authority of the Continental 
Congress, and had obtained signatures to a declaration disap- 
proving of its acts, the Whigs, who composed a majority of the 
white population, became greatly aroused and held public meet- 
ings in every district in the County. The first was held at the 
house of John Veeder, in Caughnawaga, where patriotic speeches 
were made and a liberty pole was erected, which was a most of- 
fensive object in the eyes of loyalists. Before the whole was ac-

complislied, Sir John Johnson, Col. Clans, Gny Johnson, Col. 
Butler and a large number of their adherents, arrived upon the 
ground, armed with swords and pistols, and interrupted the j3ro- 
ceedings. Guy Johnson mounted a high stoop, near the old 
church, and harangued the people, expatiating upon the strength 
of the King and Government, and the folly of opposing the au- 
thority of the Crown. He denounced the proceedings of the 
people in the most virulent and irritating language, becoming 
so offensive that Jacob Sammons, a stanch Whig and a leader 
among them, boldly denounced him as a liar and a villain. This 
was too much for the irate Tory, and leaping from the high 
stoop upon which he stood, he seized Sammons by the throat, 
while another of the party felled the patriot to the ground by a 
blow from a loaded whip, and immediately bestrode him. Sam- 
mons recovered in a moment and, hurling the fellow from him, 
sprang to his feet, stripped off his coat and prepared for a iight, 
but v\^as again knocked down. Most of his Whig friends had 
fled and he was carried to his father's house, " bearing upon his 
body the first scars of the Eevolutionary contest in the County 
of Tryon." 

At the commencement of the war there were four brothers of 
the Visschers, or Fishers, as they Avere afterwards called. A 
very bitter hostility existed against the family among the loyal- 
ists, caused by an unpleasant altercation between Sir John and 
Col. Frederick Fisher, which took place in the fall of 1775. 
Col. Fisher held his commission from the Colonial Congress and 
had ordered his regiment to parade for review on a plain near 
the ancient inn of Peggy Wemples, in Caughnawaga. While 
the parade was going on. Sir John Johnson and his lady drove 
along the river road. Seeing the regiment, he ordered his coach- 
man to drive up to the parade ground, and on arriving asked 
the first person whom he met, who had called the assemblage 
together and for what pur|)ose. The reply was that Col. Fisher 
had ordered his regiment to parade for review. Sir John then 
stepped up to the Colonel and repeated his question. On re- 
ceiving an answer he ordered the regiment to disperse, but the 
Colonel ordered them to keep their ranks. Enraged at such 
presumption the Baronet raised a sword cane, with which he 
was armed, to strike the Colonel. The latter seized the weapon 
and in the scuffle the sword Avas drawn, the scabbard being in 
the hands of Fisher. Sir Jolin threatened to run him through, 
and AA'as coolly told to act his pleasure. The scabbard was given 
up at his request and he proceeded to his carriage and requested 
Lady Johnson to rise that he might take his pistols from the 
box. She remonstrated with him but to no purpose. Taking 
Ms pistols he again ordered the regiment to disperse for they

were rebels, and at the same time threatening to shoot the Col- 
onel if it was not done. "Use your pleasure," was again the 
cool reply of the Colonel. At this moment a young Irishman, 
a servant of the Colonel, stepped up and declared with an oath, 
" If ye offer to lift a hand or finger against my master I will 
blow you through." Not relishing such decided opposition Sir 
John returned to his carriage and drove av/ay. 

A church was erected at Caughnawaga in 1763. It was of 
stone and built by voluntary subscription, Sir William Johnson 
contributing liberally toAvards the enterprise. It had no bell 
until the confiscation of the property of Sir John Johnson, when 
his father's dinner bell, weighing over one hundred pounds, was 
purchased and placed in the steeple. It contained the following 
inscription, " S. K. William Johnson, bart, 1774. Made by Mil- 
ler and Boss, Eliz. Town." In 1845 the edifice was fitted up as 
an academy, under the management of Eev. Douw Van Olinda, 
but the school w^as discontinued after a few years. The church 
was erected for the Eeformed Protestant Dutch denomination, 
and its first pastor was Eev. Thomas Eomeyn, who died in 1794 
and was buried beneath the pulpit. He was succeeded by Eev. 
Abraham Van Horn, one of the earliest graduates of Kings [now 
Columbia] College, in New York city. He continued pastor for 
thirty-eight years. He died in 1840, having during his ministry 
united in matrimony 1500 couples. The present pastor is Eev. 
J. C. Boyd. The present house of worship was erected in 1843. 
During the last year it was removed to a new location, raised, 
so as to afford a basement for Sunday school and other purposes, 
and extensively repaired, at an expense of about 810,000. The 
present membership is about 115. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 2,948, and its area 
19,112 acres. 



JPALATINE was formed as a district, by the name of 
" Stone Arabia," March 24, 1772, and its name was changed 
March 8, 1773. It was formed as a town March 7, 1788, and 
embraced all the territory between Little Falls and " The Noses," 
and extending from the Mohawk to Canada. Salisbury, (Herki- 
mer Co.) was taken ofi" in 1797, Stratford, (Fulton Co.) in 1805, 
Oppenheim, (Fulton Co.) in 1808, and Ephratah, (Fulton Co.) 
in 1827. It lies along the north bank of the Mohawk, west of 
the center of the County. The surface is chiefly an upland from 
200 to 500 feet above the valley, broken by deep, narrow ravines 
and descending irregularly towards the river. The principal 
streams are the Kauadarauk, in the east part of the town, and 
the Garoga, in the west. The soil is fertile and well adapted to

grazing. This is one of the greatest dairying towns in the 
County. 

Stone Arabia, (p. o.) near the center of the* town^ contains two 
churches, a hotel and about a dozen dwellings. 

Palatine Bridge, (p. T.) on the Mohawk and J!^. T„C.E. E., eon- 
tains about 300 inhabitants. 

JVelliston, in the west part of the town, contains two stores, a 
hotel, a cheese factory and several mechanic shops. 

Palatine Church, (p. o.) in the north-west part of the town, on 
Garoga Creek, near its mouth, is a hamlet. 

The first settler in this town was the grandfather of Major 
John Frey, of Eevolutionary fame. He came from Zurich, in 
Switzerland, in 1688, and the following year settled at Palatine 
Bridge, at what is noAv known as the " Frey^ Farm," and still 
owned by one of his decendants, Mr. S. L. Frey. The old stone 
house upon the farm was built in 1739. The German Palatin- 
ates who came over in 1710, and settled on the Hudson Eiver, 
removed to the Mohawk Valley in 1713, and settled in this vi- 
cinity. The greater part of the Stone Arabia Patent was within 
the limits of this town. William Fox settled near Palatine 
Church, and Peter Waggoner a little below, on the Mohawk, in 
1715. Mr. Waggoner settled on the farm now owned by J. H. 
Smith. He was a Colonel in the Eevolutionary war, was in the 
battle at Oriskany, and afterwards drew a pension. George 
Waggoner was also in the Oriskany battle. George Fos settled 
where Abraham Fox now lives. Henry Shults, settled just after 
the Eevolution, where his son Daniel now lives. He was taken 
prisoner at Oriskany, and carried to Canada, where he remained 
three years. After the war he drew a pension and died at the 
age of 99. Conradt Kilts was born and raised where Albert 
Kilts now lives ; he was in the war, as was also George Salts- 
'man, who settled where Henry Saltsman now lives. Sophrenus 
Wicks settled where James Bander now lives. Leonard and 
Nellie Bander were taken prisoners and kept a year. John Dil- 
lenback settled before the war, where Nancy Smith now lives ; he 
was a captain in the army and afterwards drew a pension. John 
Sitterly was also a soldier and settled at the close of the war 
where Benjamin Sitterly now lives. Andrew Dillenback settled 
where J. A. Dillenback now lives ; he was killed at Oriskany. 
Andrew Nellis settled in 1726, where M. L. Nellis now lives; he 
was wounded at Oriskany. George Kelly settled in 1784, where 
his son John now lives. Martin Nestle settled where Christo- 
pher now lives. 

Most of the early settlers were in the service of their country 
during some portion of the struggle for Independence. Many

of them gave their lives to the cause. During the raid of Sir 
John Johnson and his party, one of the severest battles was 
fought between Stone Abrabia, in this town, and the river. A 
stockade called Fort Paris was erected at Stone Arabia, and an- 
other called Fort Keyzer, about a mile north. Major Jellis 
Fonda, a stanch Whig, had his residence in this town. He was 
absent at the time of Johnson's raid, attending the Legislature, 
then in session at Poughkeepsie. His buildings were burned 
and property to the amount of 160,000 destroyed. His wife es- 
caped under cover of a thick fog, and went on foot to Schenec- 
tady. 

Col. Brown, who was killed in the battle just noticed, was a 
native of Berkshire County, Mass., born Oct. 19, 1744, and grad- 
uated at Yale College in 1771. He was a lawyer by profession, 
but early in the war volunteered to serve his country. He was 
in several of the campaigns in Canada and along the eastern 
, border of New York and Lake Champlain, and finally retired 
on account of his detestation of Arnold, under whom he served. 
Three years before the latter consummated his treason. Brown 
published a handbill in which he denounced him as an avari- 
cious and unprincipled man, and closed by saying, " Money is 
this man's God and to get enough of it he would sacrifice his 
country." Col. Brown was serving in the militia at the time of 
his death. In 1836 a monument was erected to his memory by 
his son, Henry Brown, Esq., of Berkshire, Mass., near the place 
where he fell. The following is the inscription upon it : " In 
memory of Col. John Brown, who was killed in battle on the 
19th day of October, 1780, at Palatine in the County of Mont- 
gomery. M. 36." 

The following is a copy of a deed showing that slavery, that 
relic of barbarism, once existed in this State : 
•"Know all men that Jacob Fox of Palatine (Yeoman) in con- 
sideration of two hundred and seventy-five dollars has sold and 
delivered unto George G. Eaker one certain negro man slave, 
named Harry, aged twenty-five years, to have and to hold the 
said Harry during his natural life. I Jacob Fox for myself 
heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, against any other 
person claiming said negro man, unto the said George G. Eaker 
and I shall and will forever warrant and defend by these pres-

named in honor of Erastus Eoot, of Delaware Co., 
was formed from Canajoharie and Charleston, January 27, 1823. 
It lies on the south oank of the Mohawk, near the center of the 
County. The hills that border on the river rise abruptly to a 
hight of 630 feet, and from their summits the country spreads 
out into an undulating upland. The high hills jiist below 
Spraker's, on opposite sides of the river, are called " The Noses," 
The high ridge near the east border is known as " Stone Ridge." 
The principal streams are Yatesville, Fly, East and Flat Creeks. 
Mitchell's Cave, so called from the owner of the farm on which 
it is situated, is in the vicinity of The Noses, and consists of 
several apartments, with the roof hung with stalactites. The 
soil is a fine quality of gravelly loam. 

Leatherville, or Rural Orove., (Root p. o.) is located in the cen- 
tral part of the town and contains two churches, viz., Methodist 
and Christian ; a hotel, a store, a blacksmith shop, a Avagon 
slioj), a tin shop, three shoe shops, a saw mill, a feed mill, a 
cheese factory, a school house and about 100 inhabitants. The 
cheese factory is a fine wood building, has a capacity for using 
the milk of 800 cows and turns out 180,000 pounds of cheese 
annually. It is one of the best conducted factories in the 
County. 

The"^ following sketch of the village of Rural Grove has been 
furnished by a citizen of the town : ,. 

" Rural Grove, (Root p. o.) sometimes called Leatherville, is 
situated on the main thoroughfare from Canajoharie, Mont- 
gomery County, to Schoharie Court House, Schoharie County. 
It is five miles from Spraker's, on the Central Road, and eleven 
miles from Central Bridge, on the Albany and Susquehanna 
Road. It takes the name of Rural Grove, from a beautiful group 
of elms, just in the outskirts of the village, and was formerly, 
and is sometimes now called, Leatherville, from its former large 
manufactory of leather. It is one of the most important places 
in toAvn. The surrounding country is veiy beautiful, having 
some of the finest and most fertile farms in this part of the 
County. The village is noted for the beauty and taste of its 
public buildings and private residences. The first building was 
erected in 1823, by Messrs. Stowitts and Vandemear. It was 
used as an extensive manufactory of leather. It Avas so used for

oyer twenty years, when the business was closed and the build- 
ing taken down. The site is where the new private residence of 
John Bowdish now stands. 

"In 1824 a small store was erected, and Hon. John Bowdish, 
in company with Hon. Isaac S. Frost, established a small coun- 
try store. They had a capital of 1500, all told. In three years 
Mr. Frost went out with $3000 for his share of the profits. 
From this small beginning came the large country store occu- 
pied by Mr. Bowdish. The building rebuilt is a model of ele- 
gance and architectural taste, while the interior is filled with an 
assortment of goods seldom surpassed by a city establishment. 
Its jDroprietor, still in the prime of a vigorous manhood, and in 
possession of a generous competency, honored and respected by 
his friends and neighbors, still sells goods to the surrounding 
country. Mr. Bowdish was appointed post master in 1832, un- 
der the administration of Andrew Jackson, the post ofBce hav- 
ing been removed from Corrystown, and has held the office un- 
der all administrations without interruption. 

" The snug little cottage hotel, rebuilt and now kept by H. 
Van Buren, was originally built and kept by Isaac H. Walker. 
William Perrine, with a capital of $200, in 1836, established a 
carriage and wagon shop, to which he added plough making 
on a large scale, which he continued till within a few years, he 
retired from business, built him a very beautiful house and has 
a large and competent fortune. A Lodge of Good Templars, 
having one of the finest halls in the Count}^, was organized a 
few years ago. It has sixty members and constantly increasing. 
There are two beautiful churches, the Methodist, built in 1845, 
the then j)astor, Eev. A. Mosher, and the Christian Church, built 
in 1854, Rev. John Eoss, pastor. The present pastors are Revs. 
Messrs. Tator and Hammond." 

The Methodist Church Avas organized in 1843 and their house 
of worship erected in 1845. The number of members at the or- 
ganization was about thirty ; the present number is about sixty, 

Tlie Christian Church was erected about 1854, in connection 
with the society at Charleston Four Corners. In 1865 a society 
was organized at this place with 38 members. The present 
membership is 113. 

Sjyrakers Basin, (p. v.) in the north-west part of the toAvn, on 
the Mohawk, is connected with the N. Y. C. R. R. by a ferry,

is hale and hearty, subscribing for this work, and writing his 
own name without glasses and with the book on his knee. Mr. 
Wm. B. DievendorflT has been in the dairy business since 1836, 
and is now the oldest dairyman living in the County. Mr. 
Mitchell, now deceased, was the first in the County to engage 
in dairying, which was in 1835. 

On East Creek, about two miles south of Currytown, Mr. Ja- 
cob H. Dievendorff has a saw mill, a cheese box factory, a plan- 
ing mill, a lath, shingle and broom handle factory. The saw 
mill is run by water, carrying an upright and a circular saw. 
The other machinery is run by steam. About 15,000 broom 
handles and 2,500 cheese boxes are made annually. 

The first settlers of this town were Jacob Dievendorff at Cur- 
rytown, Rudolph Keller, David and Fred. Luce, and Jacob Lain- 
ner. Like the other towns in the Mohawk Valley, Root suffered 
from the incursions of the Indians and Tories. The principal 
incursion was made in July 1781 by a Tory named Doxtader, 
and fell with the greatest severity upon Currytown. The whole 
force, consisting of about 500 Indians and a few Tories, emerged 
stealthily from the forest about noon of the 9th of July, and with 
torch and tomahawk commenced the work of destruction. Most 
of the settlers, unsuspicious of danger, were at work in their 
fields. The house of Henry Lewis was picketed and used for a 
fort, and on the first alarm those nearest sought shelter therein, 
while others fled to the woods. Among the sufferers were the 
Dievendorffs, Kellers, Myerses, Bellingers, Tanners and Lewises. 
Jacob Dievendorff, Sen., escaped, but his son Frederick was over- 
taken on his way to the Fort, tomahawked and scalped. After 
lying insensible for some time he was picked up by his uncle, 
Mr. Keller, who carried him into the Fort. He recovered and 
lived several years, when he was killed by the fall of a tree. 
Jacob Jun., a negro named Jacob, two lads named Bellinger, 
Mary Miller, a girl ten or twelve years old, Jacob Myers and his 
son, and two others, were captured. The Indians plundered and 
burned all the dwellings but the Fort and a house belonging to 
a Tory, about a dozen in all, and either killed or drove away

most of the cattle in the neighborhood. After completing the 
work of destruction the enemy started off in the direction of 
New Dorlach, now Sharon, with their prisoners and booty. 

Col. Willett was at Fort Plain when the attack was made. 
He had on the previous day sent out a scout of thirty or forty 
men, under Capt. Gross, to procure forage and watch the moYe- 
ments of the enemy. When near Sharon Springs they discov- 
ered a portion of the camp of the enemy in a cedar swamp. Col. 
Willett received information of this at the same time that a 
dense smoke was discovered in the direction of Currytown. 
Captain McKean was immediately dispatched with a small force 
and arrived in time to assist in extinguishing the flames of some 
of the buildings. Col. Willett in the meantime rallied as many 
of the militia as possible, and presuming that the enemy would 
camp at the same place as the previous night, and having been 
joined by the forces of McKean and Gross, determined to attack 
the enemy at midnight in their encampment. Col. Willett's 
whole force did not exceed one hundred and fifty effective men, 
while that of the enemy was double this number, The night 
was dark and the dense forest that surrounded the swamp was 
only penetrated by a bridle path. The guide became bewilder- 
ed and it was six o'clock in the morning before he came in 
sight of the enemy, who had now taken a more advantageous 
position. JSTot wishing to attack him at such a disadvantage. 
Col. Willett sent forward a detachment from the main body, 
which he had stationed in the form of a crescent on a ridge near 
by. This detachment advanced, delivered their fire and retreat- 
ed, followed by the enemy Avho were met by Willett with the 
main body. A desperate fight ensued for a short time when 
the Indians broke and fled, but kept up a fire from behind 
the trees and rocks. Willett and his men pursued them until 
they gave up the fight and fled precipitately towards the Susque- 
hanna, leaving their camp and all their plunder behind. They 
left forty dead upon the field, while the American loss was only 
five killed and nine wounded. 

Among the wounded on the American side was the brave 
McKean, who was carried from the field by his friends. Con- 
scious that he could not long survive, he expressed a desire to 
be buried in front of Fort Plain. Before reaching that place he 
expired and was buried temporarily at Fort Clyde. About a 
year afterwards his remains Avere removed to Fort Plain and 
deposited in front of the Fort, as he had requested. Captain 
McKean was born in Londonderry, New Hampshire, previous 
to the French and Indian war in which he was engaged. He 
was taken prisoner by the Indians, and after remaining for a 
short time, was informed by the squaws, who felt some interest

in his welfare, that he was to be burned at the stake the next 
day. Accordingly he was taken out, where he beheld the fag- 
gots prepared for the occasion. Some of the younger and less 
brave of the Indians began to taunt, kick and cuff him, where- 
upon he retaliated and laid several of them sprawling upon the 
ground. This exhibition of pluck and bravery so pleased some 
of the old braves that they laughed heartily, and after a short 
consultation concluded that he was too brave to burn. He was 
kindly treated after this and finally escaped or,was released. He 
was one of the bravest of the brave and did good service for his 
country. 

At the time of., the attack the Indians had placed most of their 
prisoners on horses stolen from Currytown, and had left a strong- 
guard with them. When they were about to retreat, fearing a 
recapture of prisoners and a consequent loss of scalps, they be- 
gan to murder and scalp them. Jacob Dievendorff leaped from 
his horse and ran towards the swamp, but was overtaken by a 
savage, knocked doAvn, scalped and left for dead. A detachment 
of militia under Col. Veeder was sent out after the battle to bury 
the dead, and fortunately discovered young Dievendorff strug- 
gling among the leaves. He was taken to Fort Plain, and under 
the care of Dr. Faught, a German physician of Stone Arabia, he 
vras restored to health. It was five years before his head was 
perfectly healed. He died in 1854 at the age of 85, one of the 
wealthiest farmers in the valley. Mary Miller was found scalped 
and alive but survived only a short time. Most of the cattle 
were abandoned and found their way back to their owners. Mr. 
Lossing, while collecting material for the " Pictorial Field Book 
of the Revolution," in 1848, visited the venerable old patriot, 
Jacob Dievendorff, and thus describes him, " We found the old 
patriot busily engaged in his barn threshing grain ; and although 
nearly eighty years of age he seemed almost as vigorous and ac- 
tive as most are at sixty. His sight and hearing are somewhat 
defective, but his intellect as exhibited by his clear remembrance 
of the circumstances of his early life, had lost but little of its 
strength. He is one of the largest land-holders in Montgomery 
County, owning one thousand fertile acres, lying in a single 
tract, where the scenes of the suffering of his early life occurred. 
In an orchard, a short distance from his dwelling, the house was 
still standing which was stockaded and used as a fort. It is fast 
decaying, but the venerable owner allows time alone to work its 
destruction, and will not suffer a board to be taken from it," 
The remains of Jacob Dievendorff repose in the family cemetery 
with those of his father, while his descendants still occupy the 
fertile fields which he formerly cultivated.

The population of the town in 1865 was 2,456, and its area 
31,652 acres. 

ST. JOMNSVILLB, named from St. John's church, 
erected in the village at an early day, was formed from Oppen- 
heim, Fulton County, April 18, 1838. It lies upon the north 
bank of the Mohawk, on the west border of the County. Its 
surface consists of the broad river flats, and a broken upland 
gradually rising north of it. The principal streams are East 
Canada, Crum, Fox, Zimmerman's, Caldwell and Mother Creeks. 
Upon East Canada Creek, about one and a half miles from its 
mouth, are a succession of falls and rapids, descending 75 feet 
in a distance of 80 rods. The soil is a fine quality of gravelly 
loam. 

,S'^. Johnsville, (p. v.) on the Mohawk, was incorporated in 
1857. It is a station on the N. Y. C. E. E. and contained in 
1865, 1,004 inhabitants. For several years most of the trains on 
the railroad stopped here for refreshments, but within a few 
years the large hotel and depot have been burned and the former 
has not been rebuilt. 

St. Johnsville Woolen Mills are located on Zimmerman Creek, 
in the north-west part of the village. They were erected in 
1840 by Hough, Eiggs & Adams, and were afterwards purchased 
and run by Winegar & Yonker, of whom they were purchased 
by Sidney Smith & Son, the present proprietors. New ma- 
chinery has been put into the mills and the proprietors are now 
engaged in the manufacture of a great variety of first-class goods 
for the home market exclusivel}^ 

St. Johnsville Agricultural Works, owned by Mr. M. "Williams, 
manufacture thrashers, horse powers, cleaners, straw cutters 
and various other implements of use to the farmer. 

This town was settled previous to the Eevolution, but the pre- 
cise date is not known. The first settlers were Germans, and 
among them were families named Hellebralt, Waters, Getman, 
Van Eiepen, Walrath and Klock. The first settlement at the 
village was made by Jacob Zimmerman in 1776. During the 
Eevolution the house of Christian Klock, three-fourths of a 
mile west of Palatine Church, was stockaded and named Fort 
House, in honor of Christian House, the builder. The house of 
Jacob Zimmerman was also stockaded. Though these forts 
were attacked they Avere never taken. Fort Hill, situated on an 
eminence east of East Creek, was erected during the French 
War. It was subsequently repaired and used during the Eevo- 
lution. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 2,153, and its area 
11,442 acres. 



OAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. Ill 

The battle between the forces of Sir John Johnson and the 
advanced guard of Van Eensselaer's army, under Colonel Du- 
bois, was fought at " Klock's Field," near "Fort House," Oct. 
19, 1780. Had this battle been followed up, Sir John and his 
whole force might probably have been captured, but the General 
ordered his forces to fall back about three miles, intending to 
renew the battle in the morning. The golden opportunity had 
passed. Taking advantage of the darkness, Sir John and his force 
had escaped. The next morning, while the main army was 
crossing the river, some of McKean's volunteers, in strolling 
about, found a block house where nine of the enemy were held 
prisoners. On being asked how they came there, Peter Cass, 
one of the prisoners, who had previously lived in Johnstown, 
said : " Why, I am ashamed to tell. Last night, after the bat- 
tle, we crossed the river. It was dark. We heard the word, 
' lay down your arms.' Some of us did so. We were taken, 
nine of us, and marched into this little fort by seven militia 
men. We formed the rear of three hundred of Johnson's 
Greens, who were running promiscuously through and over one 
another. I thought General Van Kennesselaer's whole army 
v/as upon us. Why did you not take us prisoners yesterday af- 
ter Sir John ran off with the Indians and left us. We wanted 
to surrender." Thus it appears that if there had been a dispo- 
sition to " push things," Sir John and his whole army might 
have been captured. The Indians continued to prowl around 
the settlement during the war, occasionally shoOting or captur- 
ing one of the inhabitants. In the spring of 1780 Philip Hel- 
mer deserted to the enemy. He had previously been paying his 
addresses to a daughter of Philip Bellinger, and upon a plan be- 
ing formed to take the family of the latter prisoners, he fore- 
vv^arned them in time to rally a party to their assistance. An 
ambuscade was formed and the Indians would have been killed 
or captured had it not been for the indiscretion of one of the 
party, who, upon their approach, yelled out at the top of his 
voice, " Lord God Almighty, friends, here they are !" Alarmed 
at this demonstration, the Indians fled with a loss of only one of 
their number. 

As early as 1756 a church was erected by Christan Klock. 
Eev. Mr. Eosekrantz was the first preacher, and John Henry 
Disland was the second. A German school was taught by Henry 
Hayes at an early day. The first English school was taught by 
Lot Eyan, an Irishman, in 1792. Christopher Nellis kept an 
inn in 1783, and a store in 1801. Jacob Zimmerman built the 
first grist mill, during the Eevolution, and George Klock the 
second, in 1801.

178 FULTON COUNTY. 



THIS CO UJVTY was formed from Montgomery, April 
18, 1838. It lies north of the Mohawk and east of the center of 
the State ; is centrally distant forty-five miles from Albany and 
contains 544 square miles. Its surface is a rolling and hilly up- 
land, rising into a mountainous . region on the north border. 
The liighland region is divided into three general ridges, ex- 
tending north-east and south-west. The most eastern of these 
ridges, occupying the south-east corner, consists of rounded 
drift hills of moderate elevation, bounded by gradual slopes, the 
highest summits being about 400 feet above the Mohawk. The 
second ridge extends through near the center of the County and 
occupies a wide space along the north border. The declivities 
in the north are generally steep and rocky, and the highest sum- 
mits are from 800 to 1,000 feet above the Mohawk. The third 
ridge is similar in character to the second and extends through 
the west part of the County. Its highest summits are 1200 feet 
above the Mohawk. 

Sacondaga Eiver flows south-east through the north-east cor- 
ner of the County. Its name is said to signify " Drowned 
Lands," from the great marsh along its course. It receives 
from the west, Mayfield Creek, which has for its tributaries Fon- 
das and Cranberry Creeks. Chuctenunda Creek flows through 
the south-east corner, and Cayadutta flows south-west through 
near the center, its valley separating the central from the east- 
ern ranges of hills. Garoga Creek flows south* a little west of 
the center, its valley separating the central from the western 
range of hills. Stony Creek, a tributary of the Sacondaga, flows 
north-east, in the northerly continuation of the Caroga valley, 
and breaks through tlie central ranges of hills. East Canada 
Creek forms the greater part of the western boundary, receiving 
as tributaries North, Fish and Little Sprite Creeks. The other 
streams are branches of those already named, or of the Mohawk. 
The streams are generally quite rapid, sometimes interrnpted 



FXIL TON CO VNTY. 179 



by falls and affording an abundance of water-power for mills. 
Among tlic hills in tlie north part of the* County are many 
small la]ies, which form so distinguishing a feature of the wil- 
derness of Northern New York. Along the Sacondaga, near the 
mouth of Mayfield Creek, and occupying portions of Northamp- 
ton, 13roadalbin and Majd&eld is an extensive swamp, said to 
contain 13,000 acres, lliis swamp was probably a lake at one 
■time, and is now covered with a small growth of evergi'eens 
around its border, and is a wet prairie in the center, where hun- 
dreds of tons of coarse mid grass of poor (piality are cut an- 
nually. 

The gi'eater part of the surface of the County is covered with 
drift deposits. The south part of the central and west ridges 
are chiefly composed of calciferous sand rock; and further 
north, Potsdam sandstone and gneiss appear and cover a con- 
siderable portion of the surface. Black Eiver limestone, Tren- 
ton limestone and Utica slate are also found in different locali- 
ties. Quarries of gneiss and birdseye limestone have been open- 
ed in Johnstown and Mayfield. An excellent building stone is 
found in all the north part of the County. The soil along the 
south part and in the valleys of the streams is principally a 
gravelly and clayey loam, derived from the drift deposits. It is 
well adapted to pasturage, and in the most favorable localities 
produces good crops of grain. A large portion of the north 
part is too rough and broken for profitable cultivation. The 
mountainous portion of the north of the County forms the south 
extremity of the great northern wilderness of the State. The 
settlements are very much scattered and confined to the narrow 
valleys of the streams. The hills are covered with a light 
growth of forest trees, and when once cleared the soil is too 
poor to repay cultivation. 

The manufactures of the County consist chiefly of lumber, 
leather, gloves and mittens. There are more buckskin gloves 
and mittens manufactured in this County than in all other parts 
of the United States. The center of the manufacture is at 
Gloversville, though it is largely carried on in Johnstown and 
other villages. "Work is given ' out to families throughout a 
large section of country, forming the most productive branch 
of labor in the County. 

The County Seat is located at Johnstown. This was the orig- 
inal County Seat of Tryon County, and afterwards of Mont- 
gomery County. The dissatisfaction arising from the removal 
of the County Seat to Fonda was the immediate cause of the 
division of the County. The first officers of Tryon County 
were Guy Johnson, First Judge ; John Butler and Peter Conyne, 
Judges ; Sir John Johnson, Daniel Claus, John Wells and Jellis 



180 FVLTON COUNTY. 



Fonda, Assistant Judges. The first County Court was organized 
September 8, 1772. The first County officers after the organiza- 
tion of Fulton County Avere Donald Mclntyre, First Judge ; 
John W. Cady, District Attorney ; T. A. Stoughtenburgh, Clerk ; 
David J. McMartin, Sheriff ; and Archibald McFarland, Surro- 
gate. The Court House is a brick building erected by Sir Wil- 
liam Johnson in 1772, The inside has been renewed within 
the last few years ; its walls exhibit no marks of decay, and the 
casual observer would be surprised to learn that they had been 
built nearly a century. The Clerk's Office is a fire-proof struc- 
ture adjacent to the Court House. The Jail is a stone structure 
erected in 1762 by Sir William Johnson. It contains the usual 
accommodations for convicts and the residence of the jailor. 
In 1849 the wood work of the Jail was burned and the wall upon 
one side was so much injured as to be rebuilt. The remaining 
walls arc as originally constructed, four feet thick and look as 
though they were good for another century. It was used as a 
fort during the Revolution. 

The County Poor House is located upon a farm of about 100 
acres, at West Bush. The farm is in a good state of cultivation, 
the buildings in good repair and the general administration of 
afiairs is satisfactory. 

The number of inmates at the Poor House Nov. 30, 

1867, was _ 50 

Number admitted during the year, 43 

Number who died, 3 

Number discharged, 39 

Number remaining Nov. 30, 1868, 51 

The expense of supporting the poor from Dec. 1, 1867, 

to Dec. 1, 1868, was $5,553.99 

Five weekly newspapers are now published in the County. 
The first was published in 1796 and called 

The Johnstown Gazette. 

The Montgomery Advertiser was published at Johnstown in 
1796 by Jacob Doxtader. It soon passed into the hands of 
James Smith, and afterwards into those of Alvin Eomeyn and 

Clark. It was subsequently published for several years by 

David Holden. 

The Montgomery Bepublic was commenced at Johnstown in 
August, 1806, by William Child. His brother, Asa Child, soon 
after became editor. In 1823 it passed into the hands of Wm. 
Holland, by whom it was published two years. The paper sub- 
sequently passed into tlie hands of Peter Mix, who continued its 
publication until 1834, when the office was burned. The paper 



FUL TON CO TJNTY. 181 



was soon after revived and continued until November 1836, 
when the office was again burned and the publication of the pa- 
per discontinued. 

The Montgomery Intelligencer was commenced in 180G and dis- 
continued in 1807. 

The Montgomery Monitor was commenced at Johnstown in 
1808 by Robbins & Andrews. It soon jjassed into the hands of 
Russell Prentice, who sold it in 1824 to Duncan and Daniel 
McDonald. In 1828 they removed it to Fonda, thence to Cana- 
joharie, and finally to Schoharie. 

The Johnstoion Herald was removed from Amsterdam in 1824 
by Philip Reynolds. It had been published there as the Mo- 
hawk Herald. In 1834 it was removed to Fonda and published 
as the Fonda Herald. 

The Montgomery Freeman was published at Johnstown by 
Yates & Co. 

The Northern Banner was commenced at Union Mills, Broad- 
albin, by John Clark. It was removed in a few months to 
Johnstown and published as 

The Northern Banner and Montgomery Democrat. In 1837 its 
name was changed to 

The Montgomery Republican. It was soon after sold to Wm. 
S. Hawley who changed its name in 1838 to 

THE FULTOK COUNTY DEMOCRAT. It was published 
• for a time by A. T. Norton, and in 1842 it- passed into the hands 
of Walter N. Clark, who has continued its publication to the 
pre-sent time. 

The Christian Palladium was a semi-monthly published in 
1836 by Joseph Badger. It was removed to Albany about 1840. 

The Fulton County Republican was commenced at Johnstown 
in 1838 by Darius Wells. In 1840 Alexander U. Wells became 
proprietor, and in 1842 he sold to George Henry, who continued 
its publication until 1860, when the paper was discontinued. 

The Garland was a semi-monthly, published at Union Mills 
by William Clark. It was afterwards issued for a short time at 
Johnstown. 

The Literary Journal was published at Kingsborbugh in 1843

publication until March 1869, when it passed into the hands of 
George W. Heaton, the present publisher. 

THE GLOYEESVILLE STANDARD was commenced in 
December 1856, by W. H. Case. In March 1860, it passed into

ton, the present publisher. It is now the official paper of Eul- 
ton County. 

THE GLOVEKSVILLE INTELLIGENCER was started in ' 
1867 by the citizens of Gloyersville, C. N. Kelly, editor. In 
about six months it was purchased by George M. Thompson, 
the present editor and proprietor. 

THE GLOVEESVILLE DEMOCRAT is published by A. S. 
Botsford. 

The settlement of this County was commenced about 1760, 
under the auspices of Sir William Johnson, with whose life the 
history of the County is so intimately connected that a brief 
sketch will not be deemed out of place. He was born in Ireland 
about the year 1714, and when about twenty-one years of age 
came to this country to take charge of a large tract of laud 
which his uncle. Sir Peter Warren, had purchased in the Mo- 
hawk Valley. Through the influence of his uncle he was ap- 
pointed agent of Indian affairs, and by learning their language, 
adopting their dress and customs when the occasion seemed to 
demand it, and by His fair dealing with them, he acquired great 
influence over them, which continued until his death. He had 
not long been a resident of the Mohawk Valley before he ob- 
tained the title to a tract of land north of the river, in the j)res- 
ent town of Amsterdam, and erected a stone house for his resi- 
dence, which was afterwards fortified and caUed Eort Johnson. 
He continued to add to his landed property until he became one 
of the largest landholders who have ever been in this country. 
.As a general he commanded the forces sent against the French 
at Lake George, and received as a reward the honor of Knight- 
hood. In 1762 he erected a residence near the present village 
of Johnstown, which is still standing and known as Johnson 
Hall. He had a large number of tenants, who were attached to 
his interests, and the future prospects of the fimiily were very 
flattering. On the approach of the troubles which subsequently 
resulted in the Revolution and the independence of the Colo- 
nies, he is supposed to have been liberally inclined. While his 
duty to his Government, whose offices he held, seemed to forbid 
his taking an active part in the cause of the Colonies, his at- 



FULTON COUNTY. 183 



tachment to his neighbors rendered the thought of any meas- 
ures tending to their ruin extremely painful to his feelings. 
He was accustomed to receive large numbers of Indians and 
hold councils with them at the Hall. On the 7th of July, 1774, 
about 600 Indians assembled for a council, but Sir William was 
too unwell to attend to its duties, though the Indians requested 
that the conference be no longer deferred. The next day a pre- 
liminary conference was held, and on the 9th the conference 
was opened in due form, when the Indians set forth their 
grievances. The principal speaker was a Seneca Chief, followed 
by a Cayuga. The next day being the Sabbath, Sir William de- 
ferred his reply until Monday. His speech was delivered in the 
burning sun and occupied two hours, at the close of which 
pipes and tobacco were distributed among the Indians and they 
adjourned to prepare a reply. Sir William was immediately at- 
tacked with dysentery and was conducted to his library, where 
he died the same evening. There appears to be no real founda- 
tion for the report that he committed suicide. The funeral was 
attended on the 13th. The remains were deposited in the vault 
under the altar of the stone church in the village of Johnstown. 
The Indians attended the funeral in a body and exhibited the 
most lively marks of sorrow. The next day they performed the 
rites of condolence. 

His will -was dated Jan. 27, 1774, and in it he gave particular 
directions for his burial. He directed mourning for his house- 
keeper, Mary Brant, and for the children, and his servants and 
slaves. The sachems of both Mohawk villages were to be invit- 
ed to his funeral and to receive each a stroud, blanket, crape and 
gloves, which they were to receive and wear as mourners 
next after his family. The whole expense of the funeral was 
not to exceed 300 pounds sterling. The funeral expenses were 
to be first paid by Sir John out of his three per cent, consolidat- 
ed annuities, within six months. He bequeathed to Peter, a 
son of Mary Brant, three hundred pounds, and to each of her 
other children, seven in number, one hundred pounds, the in- 
terest to be expended in their education. To young Brant, alias 
Keighneghtnga, and William, alias Tagcheunto,iwo Mohawk lads, 
one hundred pounds each in New York currency. After paying 
the foregoing he gives one half of the remainder to Sir John, 
and to Daniel Glaus and Guy Johnson, his sons-in-law, each 
one half of the remainder. He then gives his library and plate, 
certain portions excepted, together with one fourth of his slaves 
and cattle, to Sir John, and the remaining three fourths to his 
daughters and the children of Mary Brant. His landed estate 
is divided between his children and friends, designating the part 
that each shall receive, and especially enjoining upon his chil- 



I 84 FVL TON CO UNTT. 



dren not to sell or alienate any portion of the Royal G-rant, as 
he had received it as a free gift from the King. The legatees 
of his land were Sir John and Guy Johnson, Daniel Glaus, each 
of the children of Mary Brant, and her brothers, Joseph and 
William, Mary M. Grah, John and Warren Johnson, his broth- 
ers, and Dease, Sterling, Plunket and Fitzimons, his sisters, and 
John Dease, his nephew. He gaye to Eobert Adams, Joseph 
Chew and William Byrne, old friends, and Patrick Daly, a ser- 
vant, the free use for life of certain lands. He provided further 
for the division of his estate in case Sir John died without issue. 
The executors of his will were Sir John and Guy Johnson, Dan- 
iel Glaus, his brothers, John and Warren Johnson, Daniel Camp- 
bell, John Butler, Jellis Fonda, Capt. James Stevenson, Robert 
Adams, Samuel Stringer, Dr. John Dease, Henry Frey and Jo- 
seph Chew, or any six of them. John Dease, Jellis Fonda, John 
But]er, James Stevenson, Henry Frey and Joseph Chew were 
appointed guardians of the children of Mary Brant. Three 
hundred pounds were appropriated to the purchase of rings for 
his executors and the guardians of his children. 

Sir William is said by some to have had two wives, though 
they were not made such until they had lived with him for some 
time. His first wife was a German girl, who, according to the 
custom of the times, had been sold to a man by the name of 
Phillips, to pay her passage to the captain of the emigrant ship 
in which she came to this country. She was a handsome girl 
and attracted considerable attention. A neighbor of Sir Wil- 
liam, who had' heard him express a determination never to marry, 
asked him why he did not take the pretty German girl for a 
house-keeper. The suggestion was favorably received. Not 
long after, the neighbor called on Phillips and asked where the 
High Dutch girl was. Phillips replied, " Johnson, that tamned 
Irishman, came tother day and offered me five pounds for her, 
threatening to horsewhip me and steal her if I would not sell 
her. I thought five pounds petter than a flogging, and took it, 
and he's got the gal." She was the mother of Sir John and two 
daughters, who became respectively the wives of Guy Johnson 
and of Daniel Glaus. These two daughters, who were left by 
their dying mother to the care of a friend, were brought up and 
educated almost in solitude. That friend was the widow of an 
officer who was killed in battle. Retiring from the world, she 
devoted her whole time to the care of these children. They 
were carefully instructed in religious duties and in various kinds 
of needle-work, but were kept entirely from society. At the age 
of sixteen they had never seen a lady except their mother and 
her friend, or any gentleman except Sir William, who visited 
them daily. After their marriage they soon acquired the habits 



FULTON COUNTY. 185 



of society and made excellent wives. When upon her death-bed, 
the mother of these children was married to Sir William to legiti- 
mate the children. After her death, Molly Brant, sister of the 
famous Mohawk Chief, succeeded to her place. It is said by 
some that Sir William married her also, but he speaks of her in 
his will as his house-keeper. Sir William's first interview and 
acquaintance with her, as related by Mr. Stone, was quite ro- 
mantic. She was a very sprightly and beautiful girl of sixteen 
when he first saw her at a militia muster. One of the field offi- 
cers riding upon a fine horse came near her, and by way of ban- 
ter she asked permission to mount behind. Not supposing she 
could perform the feat, he assented. At the word she leaped 
upon the crupper with the greatest agility. The horse sprang 
off at full speed, and clinging to the officer, her blanket flying 
and her dark hair streaming in the wind, she was borne about 
the parade ground with the speed of the race-horse. Sir Wil- 
liam, who was a witness of the exhibition, admiring the spirit of 
the young squaw, and becoming enamored of her person, took 
her home as his wife. This, according to the Indian custom, 
made her really his wife. Golden, in speaking of the customs 
of the Six Nations, says : " They carried their hospitality so far 
as to allow distinguished strangers the choice of a young squaw 
from among the prettiest in the neighborhood, washed clean 
and dressed in her best apparel, as a companion during his so- 
journ with them." Sir William availed himself of the customs 
prevalent among the Indians, who considered it an honor to 
have their wives and daughters intimate with him. The result 
was a large posterity scattered among the Indian tribes in differ- 
ent parts of the country. 

From the commencement of the difficulties between the Colo- 
nies and the King, Sir John Johnson, who had succeeded to the 
estate of his father, became an active and zealous advocate of the 
rights of the Crown. He fortified Johnson Hall in 1775, armed 
the Scotch Highlanders on the Kingsborough Patent, and used 
his influence to spread discontent among the Indian tribes under 
his control. Such conduct could not be tolerated, and General 
Schuyler, with a small force, came into Tryon County for the 
purpose of arresting Sir John or of entering into some kind of 
an arrangement whereby he should at least remain neutral. 
General Herkimer ordered out the militia and the whole force 
paraded on the ice, on the Mohawk Eiver, in January 1776. 
Major Fonda was sent as a messenger -to Sir John, and a corres- 
pondence was carried on for two or three days. The result was 
that he surrendered himself a prisoner, disarmed his tenants 
and was finally released on his parole. This for a time quieted 
the fears of the inhabitants, but in the following May, his in-

trigues continuing, Col. Dayton was sent witli a force to arrest 
him. Eeceiving intelligence of the movement, he hastily col- 
lected his dependents and tenants, left his family plate, money 
and other valuables to be buried by a faithful slave, and took 
his departure through the forest to Canada. There he raised a 
regiment of Tories, called " Johnson's Greens," with which he 
made several raids upon the inhabitants as already described in 
the history of Montgomery County. By an act of the Legisla- 
ture of ' New York, the large estates of Sir John and other To- 
ries were confiscated. Inspired with feelings of revenge, he 
waged a most inhuman and barbarous warfare upon his old 
friends and neighbors. About midnight on the 21st of May, 
1780, Sir John, with a force of five hundred Tories and Indians, 
with which he had penetrated the wilderness from Crown Point 
to the Sacondaga, appeared at Johnstown. He divided his force 
into two parties, one of which was to strike the Mohawk at 
Tribes Hill, thence proceed up the river, destroying all in their 
course, and forma junction with the other division at the mouth 
of the Cayadutta Creek. With the latter division Sir John pro- 
ceeded through the village of Johnstown, unperceived by the 
sentinels of the small picketed fort there, and before daylight 
appeared before the Hall, once his own, where he secured two 
prisoners. On his way to join the other division at the mouth 
of the Cayadutta, he passed the residence of Sampson Sammons, 
who with his family, were among the most active patriots of the 
County. Sir John had always respected Mr. Sammons, but de- 
termined on this occasion to carry him and his family away 
prisoners, and thus lessen the number of his more influential 
enemies in the Mohawk Valley. It was scarcely light when a 
Tory named Sunderland, with "a resolute band, surrounded the 
house of Mr. Sammons and arrested Thomas, the youngest son, 
as he stepped to the door to observe the weather. This was the 
first intimation of danger. The father and two other sons were 
immediately made prisoners without any opportunity for de- 
fense, but the females were left undisturbed, after plundering 
the house of all valuables. The marauders then proceeded to 
the mouth of the creek and up the river, plundering and burn- 
ing as they went. Within a few miles, nine aged men, four of 
whom were upwards of eighty years of age, were murdered and 
scalped. In the afternoon Sir John returned to the Hall, where 
he secured the plate and other valuables, which filled two bar- 
rels. It was then distributed among forty soldiers, who placed 
it in their knapsacks, the Quarter-Master making a memoran- 
dum of the name of each with the articles intrusted to him, and 
in this way it was carried to Montreal. Towards night the 
militia began to collect, and Sir John having obtained posses-

sion of about twenty slaves, among whom was the one who 
buried the treasure, he took his departure for Canada. So com- 
pletely panic-stricken were the inhabitants that he was allowed 
to escape unmolested in his retreat, and reached St. John's in 
safety. While halting the uext day after leaving Johnstown, 
old Mr. Sammons requested an interview vsdth Sir John, which 
was granted. He asked to be released, but the Baronet hesitat- 
ed. Tlie old man then recurred to former times when he and 
Sir John were friends and neighbors. " See what you have 
done, Sir John," he said, " You have taken myself and my sons 
prisoners, burned my dwelling to ashes, and left the helpless 
members of my family with no covering but the heavens above, 
and no prospect but desolation around them. Did we treat you 
in this manner when you were in the power of the Tryon Coun- 
ty Committee ? Do you remember when you were consulted by 
General Schuyler, and you agreed to surrender your arms? Do 
you not remember that you then agreed to remain neutral, and 
that upon that condition General Schuyler left you at liberty on 
your parole ? Those conditions you violated. You went off to 
Canada ; enrolled yourself in the service of the King ; raised a 
regiment of the disaffected who abandoned the country with 
you ; and you have now returned to wage a cruel war against 
us, by burning our dwellings and robbing us of our property. 
I was your friend in the Committee of Safety, and exerted my- 
self to save your person from injury. And how am I requited ? 
Your Indians have murdered and scalped old Mr. Fonda, at the 
age of eighty years, a man who, I have heard your father say, 
was like a father to him when he settled in Johnstown and 
Kingsborough. You cannot succeed, Sir John, in such a war- 
fare, and you will never enjoy your property more." The ap- 
peal bad its effect. The old gentleman was released and a span 
of his horses restored to him. A Tory named Doxtader was 
seen upon one of the old man's horses and refused to give it up, 
saying it belonged to an Indian. After the war he returned to 
the neighborhood, when Mr. Sammons had him arrested, and 
he was obliged to pay the full value of the animal. 

In the fall of the same year Sir John made another raid upon 
Tryon County, plundering and burning in the usual manner. 
In October 1781, Major Eoss and Walter Butler invaded the 
County and encamped a short distance north of Johnson Hall. 
Here he was attacked by a small force under Col.'Willett, which 
gave way on the first fire and retreated to the stone church at 
the village, where they were again rallied, and by the aid of re- 
inforcements that had come up, Butler's force was defeated and 
forced to retreat. He was followed by Willett along the north 
bank of the Mohawk for some distance, thence northerly along 



188 FULTON COUNTY. 



the West Canada Creek. Some skirmishing ensued and several 
of the Indians were killed and others taken prisoners. There is 
considerable diversity in the accounts given of this expedition, 
but its results were favorable and the infamous Tory, Butler, 
was killed. It is conceded that he was shot by an Oneida In- 
dian upon the opposite side of the creek. The Oneida plunged 
into the creek, and on reaching the opposite bank, found Butler 
not dead but writhing in great agony. He cried for quarter 
while the glittering tomahawk of the Oneida was raised over his 
head. " Me give you Sherry Valley quarters," replied the In- 
dian, and buried the hatchet in the Tory's head. Stripping off 
his scalp the pursuit was continued while Butler's body was left 
to the beasts and birds of the forest. This was the last incur- 
sion of the enemy into the valley of the Mohawk. Indeed there 
was no object for another raid even if the war had continued. 
The whole valley had been swept as with the besom of destruc- 
tion, until there was scarcely anything left except the land, 
which the peaceful pursuits of agriculture soon made fruitful 
again. New and enterprising settlers came in, and in a few 
years scarcely a trace of the former raids were to be found. 

At the outbreak of the Kebellion the citizens of Fulton 
County were engaged in the peaceable pursuits of agriculture 
and manufacturing; but when the first note of alarm was 
sounded and a call made for volunteers to rally in defense of the 
Union, the citizens of the County left their farms and their 
workshops and all the endearing associations of home, for the 
camp and the battle-field, and with patriotic zeal continued 
their efforts until every traitorous organization was disbanded, 
and the Stars and Stripes floated over every fort and in every 
State in the Union. The census reports of 1865 are too meager 
and too unreliable data upon which to base an estimate of the 
number who volunteered from this County. It is believed how- 
ever that, in common with the other counties of the State, Ful- 
ton bore her fuU share in this great contest

BLEJECKERf named in honor of Rutger Bleecker, a 
patentee of the town, was formed from Johnstown, April 4, 
1831. A part was re-annexed to that town in 1841, and a part 
of Caroga was taken off in 1842. It is the central town upon 
the north border of the County. Its surface is a hilly and 
mountainous upland, the highest summits upon the north bor- 
der rising to the hight of 2,000 feet above tide. The streams 
are head branches of West Stony and Garoga Creeks. There 
are several small lakes in the valleys, the principal of which are 
Chase's Lake in the north, and Woodworth Lake and Peck's 
Pond on the south border. The soil is light and thin and the 
surface is very stony. The leading pursuits are lumbering and 
tanning. 

Bleecker, (p. v.) in the south part, contains a Presbyterian 
church, a brewery, two tanneries, two saw mills, several me- 
chanic shops and stores, and about 200 inhabitants. ^ 

There are in the town four churches, viz., Presbyterian, Meth- 
odist, Lutheran and Roman Catholic ; four stores, £ve hotels, 
three tanneries, thirteen saw mills and one grist mill. Fine 
Tannery is in the north-east corner of the town, Smithes Tannery 
is in the east part, about six miles north of the village, and 
Feck^s Tannery is about one mile west of the village. The saw 
mills in various parts of the town do a large business. 

The first settlements of this town were commenced about 
1800 by emigrants from New England, among whom were 
James Morse, William Rood, Ephraim Lindsley, James Landon, 
Samuel Shaffer, William Eglan, Frederick Mills, George Hamil- 
ton and Goodwell. William Chase, the patentee of a large 

tract of land in the town, erected a grist mill on the north 
branch of Stony Creek in 1804-5. 

The first school house was built in 1834, chiefly through the 
influence of Joseph Eastman. The first school in district No. 
3 was taught by Nancy Foot, and the first in No. 4 by Aseneth 
Greenfield.

The population of the town in 1865 was 993, and its area 
35,715 acres. 

MMOADALIBIN' was formed from Caughnawaga, March 
12, 1793. Northampton was taken off in 1799, and a part of 
Perth in 1842. It is the central town on the east border of the 
County. Its surface is rolling and most of it is susceptible of 
cultivation. Chuctenunda Creek flows through the south-east 
corner. Kennito Creek flows west, through near the center, 
Mayfield Creek through the north-west corner, and French- 
man's Creek flows north-west through the north part. The 
soil is chiefly of the drift formation and inclines to sand. The 
north part extends into the great Sacondaga Marsh, which is 
annually overflowed and in which the soil is alluvium. 

Fondas Bush, (Broadalbin p. o.) on Kennito Creek, in the 
south-west part, was incorporated April 17, 1815, as Rawson- 
vilk. It contains three churches, viz.. Congregational, Metho- 
dist and Baptist; two hotels, a printing office, several mills and 
manufactories and about 1200 inhabitants. 

Benedict's Corners, in the north part, contains a Christian 
church and about a dozen houses. 

Worth Broadalbin (p. o.) and 

Union Mills (p. o.) are hamlets. 

Vanvra7i]cen Corners, in the south-east corner, on the line of 
Saratoga County, contains a grist mill and about a dozen 
dwellings. 

There are five saw mills, one grist mill and three paper 
mills in the town. 

. The town was named from a place in Scotland, by James Mc- 
Intyre, one of the early settlers. It comprises parts of Sacon- 
daga, Kayaderosseras and Stone's Patents. The first settler in 
this town was Henry Stoner, father of Nicholas Stoner, the re- 
nowned trapper and hunter so widely known through all this 
region for many years. He located at Fondas Bush previous to 
the Kevolution. Within a few miles of him, Joseph Scott, Ben- 
jamin DeLine, Philip Helmer, Andrew Bowman, Herman Sal- 
isbury, John Putnam, Joseph Desilver, John Homan, Charles 
Cady and Samuel Brown settled, previous to the Revolution. 
James Mclntyre, Nathan Brockway, Alexander Murray, Alex- 
ander Oliver and Daniel Mclntyre, from Scotland; Peter Dem- 
arest and Derrick Banta, from New Jersey ; Aaron Manchester, 
Reuben Burr and Enoch Cromwell, from New England, settled 
soon after the Revolution.

Summer House Point is a knoll of laud in the north-west part 
of the town, extending into the vlaie, or swamp, and so named 
from the fact that Sir William Johnson erected a summer house 
upon the point in 1772, and from that time until his death was 
accustomed to siaend a portion of every summer at this place. 
This cottage is described by Simms as a tasty one story building, 
fronting the south, with a piazza, supported by square columns, 
extending around the sides and east end, with a promenade 
upon the top, nearly as high as the eaves. Sir William had a 
large garden, well cultivated, at this point, and set out fruit 
trees, some of which remained for many years. He kept a fine 
boat at this place and entertained his visitors in the best man- 
ner the surroundings would permit. The fall and spring were 
the best times for hunting ; when tlie marsh was flooded a boat 
would easily pass over it and thousands of ducks and wild geese 
might be seen floating upon its surface. No traces of the build- 
ings now remain. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 2,335, and its area 
34,104 acres. 

CAMOGA was formed from Stratford, Bleecker and Johns- 
town, April 11, 1842. It lies on the north border of the County, 
west of the center. Its surface is rolling in the south and 
broken in the north by small sharp mountain peaks. A large 
hill lies west of Garoga Creek, and a swell of land rises about 
300 feet, between the principal branches. Several clusters of 
lakes, lie in the center and north part of the town. The princi- 
pal ones are Caroga, East Garoga, West Canada, East Canada, 
Tilud, Green, Pine, Otter, Prairie, Bellows, Indian, Steward, 
Nine Corner, Goose and the Stink Lakes. Garoga Creek flows 
south from. Garoga Lake. Only a small portion of the soil is 
susceptible of profitable cultivation. The principal business is 
lumbering. 

Neu'Jcirk's Mills, on Garoga Creek, in the southern part of the 
town, contains a church, a school house, a hotel and about 25 
houses. 

Wheelerville, near the center of the town, contains a church, a 
school house, a store and about 30 dwellings. 

There are in the town eight saw mills and one tannery. 

The settlement of this town was commenced about 1790. 
Within a few years thereafter the following persons came into 
the town and located, viz., David, Robert and Solomon Jeifers, 
Samuel Gage, Eeuben Brookins, William Jefferson, Abram Car- 
ley, Anthony Stewart, Nathan Lovelace, Isaac Peckham, Elijah 
Gardner, Ira Beach, John Mead, James McLellan, Titus Foster, 
Lemuel Lewis and Daniel Goff.

The first marriage was that of Francis Vandercook and Lucy 
Jeffers, in 1800. The first death was that of Mrs. Amy Mead, 
in 1804. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 631, and its area 29,- 
952 acres. 



EI*HIiATAJ3[wsi8 formed from Palatine,Montgomery Co., 
March 27, 1827. A part was re-annexed to that town on the 
division of the County in 1838. It lies on the south border of 
the County, west of the center. Its surface is mostly a hilly up- 
land, from 400 to 1,500 feet above the Mohawk. Garoga Creek 
flows south-west through the town, in a deep valley bordered by 
hills ^ from 500 to 800 feet above the creek. The soil is sandy, 
and in the south-east a clayey loam. 

Ephratah, (p. v.) in the south part, on Garoga Creek, contains 
two churches, viz., Methodist and Eeformed ; a hotel, four stores, 
two woolen mills, a tannery, a wagon shop, a blacksmith shop 
and about 400 inhabitants. 

Garoga, (p. v.) in the east part, on Garoga Creek, contains

glove factories, a turning shop and about 250 inhabitants. 

Lassellsville, (p. v.) in the west part, contains two churches, 
two stores, a blacksmith shop and about 200 inhabitants. 

The first settlement of this town was commenced about 1765, 
under the auspices of Sir William Johnson, who owned a large 
tract of land on the south side of Sprite Creek. Among those 
who settled previous to the Revolution were Frederick Getman, 
Jacob Empie and Jacob Snell, near the village ; and Nicholas 
Eector, Jacob Fry, Henry Herring, Philip Kreitzer, William 
Cool, Johannes Winkle, William Smith, Henry Hart, Zachariah 

Tripp, John Cassleman, Peter Schutt and Dusler, in other 

parts of the town. These were mostly Germans, some of whom 
had resided in Schoharie County. A grist mill was erected by 
Sir WilHam Johnson soon after the settlement was commenced. 
It stood where Wood's tannery is now located. It was burned 
by the Tories during the war. Joliannes Winkle, who settled 
previous to the Revolution, where James Yaney now lives, built 
a grist mill where Yaney's woolen factory now is. This was 
burned during the war and rebuilt by Mr. Shulls. Mr. Henry 
Yaney purchased it subsequently and finally removed it and

erected the woolen mill whicli now occupies the site. Mr. Cool 
was in the Johnson mill at the time it was attacked by the ene- 
my. He was killed and scalped. The miller was taken prison- 
er and carried away captive. He had a quantity of specie con- 
cealed in the walls of the mill at the time of his capture. This 
he recovered after his return from captivity. Henry Yaney 
built a saw mill in 1808 where Levi Yaney's mill now is. He 
was a captain in the war of 1812 and afterwards a major in the 
New York State Militia. In 1803 he purchased one hundred 
acres, embracing the village site, and had it laid out. In 1812 

George Getman and Cogswell erected a distillery and kept 

a store. Frederick Empie settled where John F. Empie now 
lives. Peter Schram built the first inn, in 1815 ; Thomas A. 
Benedict kept a store about 1810. Philip Miller, a Eevolutiona- 
ry soldier, settled previous to the war, where Peter Miller now 
lives. John Sponable settled where A. Fickle now lives ; he 
was a soldier in the Eevolution, was taken prisoner and carried 
to Canada. Eichard Young and Eichard Coppernoll, soldiers 
of the Eevolution, settled where H. Lighthall now lives. Fred- 
erick and John Getman settled previous to the war, where Ben- 
jamin Getman now lives. He purchased 300 acres of the paten- 
tee. He had four sons, three of whom settled in Ephratah. 
George Getman was a lieutenant in the Eevolutionary war and 
served under Colonel Willett ; Frederick settled in this town 
and made maple sugar from a tree which is still standing and 
from which the eighth generation has made sugar. John Shav- 
er settled in 1804 where Benjamin Shaver now lives. He was a 
captain in the war of 1812, was at Sacketts Harbor. Henry 
Whitlock, a soldier of 1812, settled in 1810 where Stephen Whit- 
lock now lives. Nicholas Smith, settled where McLaughlin 
lives ; Henry Smith settled where Daniel now lives, and Wil- 
liam where David now lives, previous to the Eevolutionary war, 
in which they all served. Nicholas Eector, a captain of the 
militia during the Eevolution, lived where Chauncey Snell now 
lives. He and his family were attacked by Indians but escaped. 
A man named Empie was shot and scalped, but killed an Indian 
after he was wounded. Mrs. Eector was wounded in the leg, 
and while on her way to the Fort at Stone Arabia, she found the 
body of a man whom the Indians had killed, took his shoes and 
wore them to the Fort. One of the shoes was nearly filled with 
blood on her arrival. She had one son killed by the Indians. 
Joseph Dennis settled in 1816 where E. Dennis now lives. He 
built a grist mill and saw mill. Abram Durfee settled at Eock- 
wood in 1815, and in company with Simmons built the first 
carding mill in the town. The first Town Meeting was held at 
the house of Harvey Cook in April 1825 j. John Eisenlord was

wherewith I shall think the said County is not chargeable, nor 
will I disallow any account or article wherewith I shall think 
the County justly chargeable." 

The first German school taught in the town was by a man 
named Moot, and the first English school by McLean. 

The following are the names of some of the soldiers from this 
town who laid down their lives for their country during the 
late Eebellion ; Peter Valone, George Pring, George Ohatterton,

ram Gray and Wallace McLaughlin. 

The population of the town in 1865 was 2,188, and its area 
22,620 acres. 



JOMNiSTOWJS'was formed from 'Caughnawaga, March 12, 
1793. Bleecker was taken off in 1831, Mohawk in 1837 and a 
part of Caroga in 1842. A part of Bleecker was re-annexed in 
1841. The original town of Caughnawaga was formed March 
7, 1788. It embraced all that part of Montgomery County ly- 
ing north of the Mohawk and east of a line extending from 
'' The Noses" to Canada. This town was divided in 1793 into 
Amsterdam, Mayfield, Broadalbin and Johnstown. Johnstown 
lies on the south border of the County, near the center. A 
range of hills occupies the north part, and a high ridge extends 
through the west ; the remaining parts are rolling. Cayadutta 
Creek flows south-west through the east part, and Garoga Creek 
through the north-west corner. The soil is a clayey and sandy 
loam. The chief manufactures of the town are buckskin gloves 
and mittens. 

Johnstoion, (p. v.) incorporated April 1, 1808, is situated on 
Cayadutta Creek, south-east of the center of the town, and con- 
tains the County buildings, seven churches, two newspaper 
printing offices, several mills and manufactories, and nearly 
5000 inhabitants. 

The Livingston Manufacturing Co. have a capital of $100,000, 
employ from 100 to 150 hands, and manufacture saws, files, saw- 
frames &c. The head-quarters and sales-rooms of tlie Company 
are in New York City. 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 195 

A Grist and Flouring Mill, with a capacity of 500 busliels per 
day, is sitviated on Cayadutta Creek. 

Several Skin Mills, for tanning hides for gloves, are located in 
the village. 

St. John^s Church (Episcopal,) was the first church edifice 
erected in the town. It was built of stone in 1771, by Sir Wil- 
liam Johnson. It was burned in 1836 and rebuilt the next 
year. The present number of communicants is 140, James By- 
ron Murray, M. A., is the present pastor. 

The Presbyterian Church numbers 320 members. The church 
edifice is of brick, 50 by 110 feet, and 133 feet to top of the spire. 
It is furnished with beautiful stained glass windows and a fine 
organ, and cost 133,000. 

The United Presbyterian Church was organized in 1828. The 
church edifice is of brick, 44 by 85 feet, extreme hight 110 feet. 
It was erected in 1869. The present membership is 112. 

The First Baptist Church was organized in 1842 with 65 mem- 
bers; the church edifice was erected in 1851. Present mem- 
bership 113. 

St. PauVs Church (Lutheran) has 200 members. Church edi- 
fice of wood, located on Perry Street. 

The Methodist Church has a membership of 171. 

St. Patricks Church (Roman Catholic) was organized in 1869. 
Church edifice, of brick, is in process of erection, 47 by 102 feet, 
and will cost Avhen completed 120,000. 

The Johnstown Cemetery is located about half a mile from the 
central part of the village, is laid out in^^ood style and contains 
some fine monuments which compare ^fevorably with those of 
any other cemetery of the size in this part of the State*. 

Johnson Hall, the former residence oi Sir William Johnson, 
and erected by him in 1762, is loca*ted on a gentle eminence, 
about three-fourths of a mile nortlvwest of the Court House. 
At the time of its erection it was probably one of the finest res- 
' idences in the State, outside oOTe"^ York City. It is 40 by 60 
feet, and two stories high. A hall fifteen feet wide extends 
through the building; from this a staircase, with heavy ma- 
hogany balustrades, leads to the second story. The rail of this 
balustrade is scarred by hatchet blows, at intervals of a few 
inches, from top to bottom. Tradition says this was done by 
Brant when he fled from the Hall with Sir John Johnson in 
1776, to protect the house from marauding savages, asserting 
that such a token would be understood and respected by them. 
The house remains mainly as constructed by the original pro-

prietor, and to all appearance is good for another century. Mr. 
Wells, the present proprietor, has erected an observatory upon 
the top from which there is a fine view of the surrounding 
country. The grandfather of the present proprietor purchased 
the premises about seventy years ago, and they have remained 
in the 'family ever since. Two detached wings of stone were 
constructed as forts to protect the Hall, one of which is still 
standing and is occupied as a dwelling. 

Gloversville, (p. v.) incorporated in April 1853, is situated on 
Cayadutta Creek, four miles north of Johnstown, with which 
it is connected by a good plank road. It is noted for its manu- 
factories of gloves and mittens, in which there are nearly one 
hundred firms engaged, besides individuals who manufacture a 
few dozen pairs on their own account while engaged chiefly for 
the larger firms. From statements carefully gathered, it is es- 
timated that not less than 200,000 dozen pairs of gloves and 
mittens have been manufactured during the year, amounting in 
value to about $3,500,000. The business was commenced by 
Ezekiel Case in 1803, and has gradually grown to its present 
size, making more gloves and mittens than are made in any 
other place in the United States. The skins of various kinds 
used here are dressed as well as manufactured in the town. 
The village contains five churches, a bank, three newspaper 
printing ofiices, a union school and about 5,000 inhabitants. 
The church edifices are all of brick. , 

The First Methodist Church of Gloversville was organized in 
1838 with 69 members ; T. W. Piersons was the first pastor. A

The settlement of this town was commenced in 1760 under 
the auspices of Sir William Johnson. He removed from his for- 
mer residence at Fort Johnson, in the town of Amsterdam, to 
Johnson Hall in 1762. There were then about a dozen houses 
in the village and. a hundred tenants on farms adjacent^ The 
lands were leased by him with the intention probably of estab- 
lishing a baronial estate for his family. Among the tenants 
were Dr. Wm. Adams; Grilbert Tice, inn-keeper; Peter Young, 
miller ; Wm. Phillips, wagon maker ; James Davis, hatter ; Pe- 
ter Yost, tanner; Adrian VanSickle, Maj. John Little and 
Zephaniah Bachelor. At the Hall Sir William was visited by 
the Sachems of the Six Nations for counsel and for trade, and 
there the presents sent out by the Grovernment were distributed 
to the Indians. On these occasions he was accustomed to enter- 
tain and amuse his guests by games of various kinds, foot races, 
wrestling matches and other feats. 

Sir William had a secretary named Lafferty, who was a good 
lawyer and attended to all of his legal business. An Irishman 
named Flood took the oversight of the farm and the general 
laboring interests. About a dozen slaves performed the labor 
of the farm. He had also a family physician who practiced but 
little outside of Sir William's family. A butler, a gardener, a 
blacksmith and a tailor, were all employed upon the premises. 
One of the stone wings of the Hall was used as an oflB.ce by Laf- 
ierty, and the other contained a philosophical apparatus and 
was called Sir William's private study. He erected a school 
house in Johnstown soon after he located there. It stood on 
the corner, nearly opposite the post-oflBce. He also erected six 
dwelling houses in the vicinity of the school house. They were 
each about thirty feet long, fronting the street, eighteen or 
twenty feet wide and one and a half stories high. The first 
teacher was an Irishman by the name of Wall. In front of the 
school house were the public stocks and whipping post. He 
erected an Episcopal church a few years later and encouraged 
settlements by offering land on the most reasonable terms. He 
also gave to the Lutherans and Calvinists fifty acres each upon 
which to erect a parsonage should they desire it. Eev. Eichard 
Moseley was the first pastor of the Episcopal Church. He com- 
menced his labors in 1771, but was compelled on account of ill 
health to resign in April 1774. Sir William took great interest 
in the improvement of stock and agriculture, introducing im- 
proved breeds of cattle and the best seed for agricultural pro- 
ducts. At his death, in 1774, his titles, estates and oflBces fell 
into the hands of his son, Sir John Johnson. 



202 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 



Stone in his Life of Sir William, says : " Once every year lie 
invited the warriors of the Six Nations down to the Hall, where 
a tournament of Indian games would be held for several days. 
Having himself a fondness for athletic exercises, he took special 
pains to introduce among his tenantry all the old English field 
sports. He was also in the habit of appointing ' sport days ' at 
Johnstown, at which the yeomanry from the neighboring coun- 
try contended in deeds of personal prowess for the prizes of the 
victors. On such occasions boxing and foot racing were the 
most common. The Baronet had also a keen sense of the ludi- 
crous. The exercises would frequently be varied by races on 
horse-back, the riders seated with their faces toward the horses' 
tails. Young men, almost naked, chased guinea pigs whose 
tails were shaved and greased ; those who were able to catch the 
pigs by the tail and hold them, winning the prize. Others 
ran races with their feet tied up in bags ; and again matches 
would be made up between those who could sing the worst song, 
or contort their faces into the most hideous expressions, the vic- 
tors in these encounters receiving a bear skin jacket or a few 
pounds of snuff and tobacco." 

" With a view of creating a generous rivalry among the farm- 
ing community, and thus developing the resources of the coun- 
try, fairs were annually held at Johnstown under his own im- 
mediate supervision. On such occasions the live stock and pro- 
duce' brought in by the farmers would be carefully inspected by 
a competent committee, and those who raised the best cattle or 
raised the most upon an acre, would be liberally rewarded out 
of the Baronet's private purse." 

As an indication of the summary manner in which he some- 
times dealt with offenders the following is related : One of his 
tenants had struck and otherwise abused his aged father, the in- 
formation of which reached Sir William. Having sent for the 
man he invited him into his private office and inquired about 
the old gentleman, saying he had heard that he was troublesome, 
and if such was the case perhaps he could not do better than to 
chastise him a little. " I have done it," was the reply. Sir Wil- 
liam immediately locked the door, put the key in his pocket, 
took down a horsewhip and gave the man a severe flogging ; 
then opening the door, said : " Go home, you villain, and flog, 
your father again." ^ ■ _ 

The remains of Sir William were, at his death, placed in his 
own private tomb, under the altar of the stone church which he 
had erected. In 1836 the church was destroyed by fire, and 
when it was rebuilt the site was changed so that the space oc- 
cupied by the altar was left in the open space outside of the 
church. The precise location of the tomb was in consequence 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 203 

of this, unknown for several years. In the summer of 1862 Eev. 
Mr. Kellogg, the rector of the Episcopal Church in Johnstown, 
succeeded in finding the tomb. It was very well preserved, 
though some of the bricks composing the top had fallen in. A 
few pieces of the mahogany coffin were found, with some 
wrought nails. A plain gold ring was also found, marked on 
the inside " June 1739, 16." The skull and the bones of the 
legs and arms were in a good state of preservation ; some other 
portions of the skeleton were also found. These remains were 
inclosed in a hollow block of granite, sealed up and replaced in 
the tomb with appropriate ceremonies. The Et. Eev. Bishop 
Alonzo Potter, of the State of New York, -officiated on the oc- 
casion. 

The population of this town in 1865 was 9,805, and its area 
47,640 acres. 

The following characteristic anecdote is related of Sir Wil- 
liam : While residing at Fort Johnson he made some alteration 
in his grist mill near by, and put in a new pair of mill-stones. 
A German named Francis Salts, who was erecting a mill on 
Schoharie Creek, a few miles above its mouth, called on Sir 
William to purchase the old grinders. The price was agreed 
upon, and after some conversation about the terms of payment, 
the Baronet told him to put his mill in operation and when the 
debt became due if he would sing a song that pleased him, no 
further payment would be exacted. The mill was soon in ope- 
ration, aiid when the time of payment arrived, Salts, who was 
quite a singer, called on the Baronet to discharge the debt. Sir 
William had invited in some of his friends, and Salts sang song 
after song to the great delight of all except his creditor, whose 
countenance remained unmoved. At length having exhausted 
his catalogue of German songs, he thrust his hand into his 
pocket and drew forth a pouch containing the cash, singing in 
the German as he did so in no very good humor : 

" Money bag, money bag, you must come out; 
The man he will be paid." 

" That will do, now put up your money," said Sir William, 
as he laughed heartily at the song. " Are you paid ?" asked 
Salts, with evident surprise, as he returned the purse to his 
pocket. " Yes, yes, that will do, that's the best of the whole," 
said the Baronet, and sent Salts away rejoicing. 

We have already given an account of the capture of the Sam- 
mons family. In the afternoon of the same day. Sir John re- 
turned to the Hall, and while the prisoners were strongly guard- 
ed, many of the Tory inhabitants embraced the opportunity to 
visit their friends and relatives who composed to some extent 
the force of Sir John. Mrs. Hare, the widow of a British offi- 



204

cer, who occupied apartments at the Hall, interceded with Sir 
John and secured the release of some of her friends who were 
among the prisoners. Among these was Thomas Sammons, 
who had pretended to be very lame. Jacob and Frederick Sam- 
mons were carried into captivity, and imprisoned at Fort Chamb- 
lee. About forty prisoners were confined here. Jacob Sam- 
mons very soon began to contrive how to escape, but most of his 
fellow prisoners thought the project too daring to succeed. Af- 
ter this the two brothers began to plan for their own escape 
without regard to others. The prisoners were supplied with 
an allowance of spruce beer, to procure which two prisoners 
were detailed daily, under a guard of five soldiers, to bring the 
cask from the brewery. The plan was to contrive to be taken 
together to the brewery and at a given signal to break and run, 
thinking that while the guard were priming their muskets, they 
would be so far away as to stand a good chance to escape their 
shots. The plan was carried out and proved successful, though 
twenty or thirty shots were fii'ed at them. They had agreed to 
meet, in case of separation, at a certain place at ten o'clock that 
night. Jacob, who had concealed himself in a thicket not far 
from the Fort, lay until dark, when he proceeded to the spot, 
where he remained for some time calling aloud for Frederick 
until he despaired of meeting him. It subsequently appeared 
that he was too early and Frederick kept his appointment. W* 
have not the space to relate all of the hardships and hairbreadth 
escapes before reaching his home. Without food or the means 
of making a fire, he proceeded along the eastern shore of Lake 
CUiamplain, living upon birch bark for four days, chewing the 
tender twigs. He then caught a few little fish, but as he had no 
means of cooking them he ate one and threw the rest away. 
His feet had become scratched, bruised and so sore that he could 
scarcely travel, and to add to his misery great swarms of mos- 
quitoes continually invested him. A duck eaten raw made him 
one meal, but the eggs upon which she sat were too far ad- 
vanced to be palatable. On the tenth day he came to a small 
lake, where, almost exhausted, he sat down, bathed his feet, and 
felt that he could never rise. At length, somewhat refreshed, 
he started again and was met by a still greater enemy in the 
shape of a rattlesnake, Avliich fastened his fangs in the calf of 
his leg. Quick as thought, he removed the flesh arouud the 
wound .with his pocket knife and then killed and dressed t]ie 
snake for eating. Eemaining here for several days to recruit 
his strength he succeeded in making a fire which somewhat re- 
lieved him, though he was compelled to creep on his hands and 
knees for fuel. On the fourth day of his sojourn here he re- 
solved to proceed on his journey, but could not Avithout some 



GA ZETTEER OF TO WNS. 205 



protection for his feet. To remedy this he cut up his hat and 
Avaistcoat, and binding them to his feet, hobbled along. A jour- 
ney of two days more brought him to a house in the town of 
Pitfcsford, Vt. Thus after fifteen days of untold suflfering he 
was again where he could recruit his strength and prepare for 
the remaining part of his journey. He proceeded to Albany, 
and thence to Schenectady, where he found his family. 

The adventures of Frederick were not less marked and worthy 
of notice. It was near sunset when they left the Fort, and at 
the appointed time Frederick repaired to the place agreed upon 
and called so loud for his brother that the guard was turned out. 
The brothers had agreed to cross the Sorel River and proceed 
up on the east side, but a misunderstanding as to the place of 
crossing prevented their meeting here. Having crossed over, 
Frederick killed a bullock, and taking one of the hind quarters 
upon his shoulder, marched off into the forest. Here he pro- 
ceeded to dress his beef and make a knapsack of the skin, and 
then proceeded on his journey. At a distance of five or six 
miles he called at a house occupied by a French family, but was 
unable to procure supplies of any kind except some tinder. 
Proceeding on until night, he stopped, kindled a fire, smoked 
and dried his meat, which he cut in small slices for the purpose. 
On the fourth day he reached the lake, where he found a canoe 
which he launched, and hoped to find some relief from the te- 
diousness of his journey. His hopes proved vain, for the canoe 
soon parted and he was obliged to proceed by land. At the 
close of the seventh day, when he supposed he was within two 
days' travel of a settlement, he kindled a fire and lay down in 
fine health and spirits. Before morning he was taken with a 
severe attack of pleurisy. A drenching rain came on and con- 
tinued for three- days, during which he lay helpless, without 
shelter, fire, or sustenance of any kind. . On the fourth day he 
attempted to take some food, but found it too offensive to eat. 
He then crept to a stagnant pool for water to quench his burn- 
ing thirst, and found it swarming with frogs, which he devoured 
raw, not being able to make a fire. Here he lay for fourteen 
days, expecting to die. Lying upon a high bluff that overlooked 
the lake, he placed his hat upon a pole hoping that it might 
attract the attention of some vessel. This hope was realized 
and he was taken on board the vessel, senseless and speechless. 
On coming to his senses he was informed that he was on board 
of the enemy's vessel lying at Crown Point. Here he remained 
sixteen days, during which he had the satisfaction of learning 
that his brother Jacob had arrived at Schenectady. He also 
learned of Jacob's suffering from the bite of a rattlesnake, and 
that during their greatest suffering they were only a few miles 



206 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 

apart. His recovery was yery slow, and before he was able to 
walk he was taken back to his old place,, Fort Chamblee, where 
he was heavily ironed and suffered untold hardships, the iron 
eating to the bones of his legs. Captain Steele, the officer in 
command, would not allow the irons to be removed until he re- 
ceived a peremptory order from General St. Leger, who was in 
command at St. John's, and then the hand-cuffs were not re- 
moved. In November 1781, the prisoners were transferred to 
an island on the St. Lawrence, called at the time Prison Island, 
and situated in the rapids above Montreal. 

In the spring of 1782, Sammons organized a conspiracy with 
nine of his fellow prisoners to make their escape, but being dis- 
covered, their purpose was defeated, and Sammons, being the 
leader, was again put in irons, but they were removed at the 
end of five weeks. Impatient of his imprisonment, he induced 
a fellow prisoner named McMullen to join him in another at- 
tempt to escape. The plan was to plunge into the river and 
swim to the opposite shore. About three fourths of a mile be- 
low the island, the rapids were such as to render the river im- 
passable to boats, but being expert swimmers they succeeded in 
making the perilous voyage. They attempted to land about two 
miles below the island but were unable to on account of the 
current, and were driven two miles further, when they landed 
at a point called by the Canadians " The Devil's Point." Each 
had preserved a knife and a tinderbox, and the next thing was 
to supply themselves with tinder. This was accomplished by 
entering a house and helping themselves after frightening the 
old lady, who was the sole occupant, so that she ran out and 
alarmed the villagers. After meeting with some ludicrous ad- 
ventures in their efforts to supply themselves with food and 
other necessaries for their journey, they plunged into the un- 
broken forest, and after a journey of twelve days emerged from 
the woods within six miles of the point for which Sammons, 
without chart or compass, had directed his course. Their pro- 
visions lasted but a few days, and they then subsisted chiefly on 
roots and herbs. Their clothes were nearly all worn and torn 
from their bodies, so that when they arrived in Schenectady they 
were nearly naked. The people were at first alarmed at their 
appearance, but on learning who they were, rallied to their as- 
sistance, and supplied their wants. Sammons learned that his 
father and family had removed to Ulster County. On the morn- 
ing after his arrival at Schenectady, he wrote a letter to his 
father and sent it by an officer who was on his way to Phila- 
delphia. The letter Avas left at the house of a Mr. DeWitt, about 
five miles from the residence of Mr. Sammons, who had long 
given up his son Frederick as dead. The same night upon 



GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 207 

which the letter was left, Jacob Sammons dreamed that his 
brother Frederick was living and that there was a letter from 
him at Mr. DeWitt's, announcing the fact. The dream was re- 
peated twice and the contents of the letter were so strongly im- 
pressed upon his mind that he repeated what he believed to be 
the very language it contained. The other members of the 
family laughed at his credulity, but so strongly impressed was 
he that he repaired to the place designated, and asked for the 
letter. Mr. DeWitt looked for it and told him there was none. 
Not satisfied he requested a further search, when it was found 
behind a barrel where it had fallen. Jacob then requested Mr. 
DeWitt to open the letter and examine it while he recited the 
contents. This was done and the letter was recited word for 
word. This singular circumstance is established beyond a doubt. 

MAYFIELDf named from the Mayfield Patent, granted 
June 27, 1770, was formed from Caughnawaga, March 13, 1793. 
Wells (Hamilton Co.) was taken off in 1805, and another por- 
tion of Mayfield was annexed to that town in 1812. A part was 
annexed to Perth in 1842. It lies on the north border of the 
County, east of the center, and extends nearly to the south line. 
Its surface in the north part is broken by mountains, rising 
from 1,500 to 2,000 feet above tide. These elevations are of

The settlement of this town was commenced about 1760, un- 
der the patronage of Sir William Johnson, on the old road lead- 
ing from Tribes Hill to the Sacondaga, and was called Phila- 
delphia Bush. The first settlers who obtained a title from. KSir 
William of one hundred acres of land each, were two brothers 
named Solomon and Seely Woodworth, Truman Christie, two 
brothers named Reynolds, and others named Dunham, Cadman, 
Caufield and Flock. Christie was a Scotchman, but most of the 
other settlers were enterprising Yankees. The Woodworths 
were from Salisbury, Connecticut. Seely settled near the pres- 
ent site of Mayfield Corners, and his brother about a mile to 
the westAvard of him. Solomon Woodworth was killed by the 
Indians in the Revolution. Mr. Dunham was also killed by the 
Indians, and his house was plundered but not burned. Dun- 
ham had a son in Captain Woodworth's company who shared 
the fate of his commander. Nathaniel Conners, Michael Cro- 
man, two families named Walters, Peter Whitman, Michael 
Hayes, George Cough, John Anderson and some others, settled 
here previous to the Revolution. 

These settlers were at first obliged to go to Johnstown for 
their milling. To accommodate them and some other settlers 
Sir William erected a small grist mill at Mayfield in 1773 or 
1774. It was either burned during the war oralloAvedto go into 
decay by neglect. The mill property was confiscated and at the 
close of the war purcluised by a son of Rev. Dr. Romeyn, who 
relmilt the mill and put it in operation. Some of the early set- 
tlers after the war were William and Robert Jackson, David 
Knapp, Alvin McDougal, Peter and John McKinley, Duncan 
Anderson, Isaac Bemas, Captain and Major Van Beuren, Douw 
and Jellis Fonda, Samuel Lefferts, William Vail, David and 
Luke Woodworth and Jonali Bartlett. Soon after Romeyn put

his mill in operatic a, Thomas Shankland erected a grist mill in 
the present town of Proyidence. The bolts in these mills were 
turned by ha ad, and it was the practice for customers to turn 
the bolt for their own grist, a task by no means agreeable. 

The first birth in the town was that of Mary Cough in 176G. 
Christian Furtenback taught a German school in 1771. 

The first church organization was Dutch Reformed, in 1792.

which was called Fish House. Mr. Godfrey Shew, a German, 
became the first permanent settler. For some time previous to 
his removal to Fish House, he had lived a mile west of Johnson 
Hall. _ The house was burned during the Eevolution, but the 
place is still known by its original name, though the post office 
is Northampton. John Eikler, Lent and Nicholas Lewis, Eo- 
bert Martin, Zebulon Alger, families named Ketchum and 
Chadwick, Asahel Parker, John Trumbull, John Rosevelt, Al- 
exander St. John and John Fay were among the other early 
settlers. Soon after the Revolution, Zadoc Sherwood and Samu- 
el Olmsted settled at Northville ; and Garret VanNess, Abel 
Scribner and John Brown, three Revolutionary soldiers, settled 
near Osborn's Bridge. The other early settlers were Thomas 
Foster, Daniel and Timothy Ressequie, John McNeil, Calvin 
Young, Adam Olmsted, Cornelius Richardson, Elihu Coleman, 
Sylvanus Sweet, Robert Palmer, John Randall, Eli Sprague, 
Green Wells, Cornelius Harving, Felix Porter and John Denni- 
son, most of whom were from New England. 

The first birth was that of Godfrey Shew Jr., about two years 
before the breaking out of the Revolution. The first marriage 
was that of Alexander St. John and Martha Scribner, about 
1708; and the first recorded death was that of Gideon Olmsted.

erected a log house and covered it with bark and slabs split from 
trees. He paid $2,50 per acre for 219 acres. He came with two 
horses, but was obliged to sell one of them to purchase provisions 
for the first summer. Moses Johnson, the son of this early set- 
tler, is still living with his son Zephaniah. He is eighty-four

PUBLISHERS NOTICES. 



PJ^BLISHER^S JTOTICE^. 



Tlie Mohawk Valley Register 
and Fort Plain Journal, published 
at Fort Plain, N. Y., is one of the largest 
papers in the County, contains a good va- 
riety of news and miscellaneous matter, 
and as a family journal is worthy of the 
patronage of the community. The Job 
Department is well furnished and not sur- 
passed in its facilities for all kinds of work 
outside of the cities of the State. Busi- 
ness men will find it a convenient medium 
for introducing their business to the com- 
munity through its advertising columns.— 
See advertisement on page 296. 

S, A. Field, proprietor of Livery Sta- 
ble, C'anajoharie, N. Y., keeps good horses 
and carriages, which he will furnish to 
order at short notice. Mr. F.'s stable is 
one of the best furnished in this vicinity 
and we are confident that those wishing 
anything in this line will be satisfied with 
the teams and the charges. He gives spec- 
ial attention to furnishing carriages for

ber and builders will find everything in tha 
line of Lumber at reasonable prices. In 
the line of Flour and Feed they manufac- 
ture and keep on hand for sale the best to 
be found in the market. Their facilities 
are unequaled in these parts and we are 
confident that all who give them their pat- 
ronage will find Messrs. Freeman reliable 
and honorable business men. For adver- 
tisement see page 215. 

Dr. P. Sloan, Dental Surgeon, Cana- 
joharie, N. Y., publishes a card on page 
173. Nothing is more beautiful to look 
upon or more convenient for use than a 
good set of teeth, yet multitudes will allow 
their teeth to decay, suffer from the tooth 
ache and finally submit to their extraction, 
when by proper care and attention they 
might be preserved. Let those who have 
lost their teeth call on Dr. Sloan and have 
others inserted that can hardly be dis- 
tinguished from natural ones except from 
their mere beautiful appearance. 

John Winning, manufacturer and 
wholesale dealer in Leather, Fort Plain, 
N. Y., publishes a card on page 288. We 
commend Mr. Winning to the favorable no- 
tice of all who use leather for nianufactur- 
iug purposes, feeling assured that they will 
find the price and quality such as to suit. 
Mr. W. pays cash for hides. Give him a 
.call. 



JTolin D. Wendell, Attorney and 
Couireelor at Law, Port Plain, N. Y., pub- 
lishes a card on page 172. Those who have

pared to do all work in this line in a man- 
ner satisfactory to all reasonable custom-

Retail dealers in Printing, Writing, Wrap-

ters' Supplies, Shipping Cards, Blank

their line, extending from Harrisburgh, in 
Pennsylvania, to the Canadian border. We 
have dealt considerably with this establish- 
ment, and have invariably been gratified in

derful cures. The "Syrup," for the blood, 
liver, skin, digestive and uterine organs, 
has cured many cases of scrofula, cancer, 
tumors, goiter, salt rheum, scaldhead, and 
many other diseases too numerous to men- 
tion in this place. See card, page 20.

Hall Hotel. Ephraiah, Pulton Co., N. Y., is

PITBLISHER^^ JTOTICES. 



Dr. Klngsley, of Rome, justly cele- 
brated for the many cures he has effected of 
that most distressing disease. Cancer, pub- 
lishes a notice on page 1. He is prepared 
to treat all scrofulous diseases, and others 
of long standing, and assures his patients 
that they will not be charged a heavy bill 
and dismissed without receiving any bene- 
fit. Persons who cannot conveniently call 
upon him in person, can address him by 
letter, and will receive prompt attention. 
Dr. K. is a graduate, with an experience of 
over fourteen years in the practice of medi- 
cine. Let the afflicted give him a call. 

Dodge & Iiord, manufacturers of 
Melodeons and Reed Organs, at Ithaca, 
N. Y., were formerly connected with Syra- 
cuse manufactories. They have since 
moved their business where lumber is 
cheap, and expenses less than in the larger 
cities, like New York, Boston, Albany or 
Syracuse. The styles of their organs are 
particularly their own, possessing all 
modern improvements, and some unknown 
to other manufacturers. They have found 
market for their instruments in every 
county of the State, and in Northern Penn- 
sylvania and New Jersey, and have an in- 
creasing trade with the West, in all of 
which places they are brought into success- 
ful competition with the first Eastern 
manufacturers. They are both practical 
men, and have secured workmen of long 
experience and tried abilities. Situated 
midway between the Erie and N. Y. C. 
railways, they can ship conveniently to all 
parts of the country. See card, page 272. 

David Scidmore, Photographer and 
Jeweler, 125 Main street, Gloversville, 
N. Y., publishes a card on page 240. Per- 
sons in want of any kind of work in either 
department, will find this a good place to 
go, as all work is warranted to give satis- 
faction. Call and see. 



George W. Heatoii) Editor and 
Proprietor of Gloversville Standard, 
Johnstown Independent, and Hamilton Re- 
publican, advertises on page 248. These 
papers, published respectively at Glovers- 
ville, Johnstown, and at Wells, Hamilton 
Co., have a large circulation and afford a 
valuable medium for advertising. The 
central office is at Gloversville. Those 
whr> wish for a good local paper will find 
either of the above to answer their de- 
mand. 

Improved Gerard.— Read the ad- 
vertisement headed " The celebrated Oroide 
Watch." The advertisers (Messrs. James 
Gerard & Co.,) are actually selling these 
Watches at twelve dollars, fifteen dollars, 
and twenty dollars each; and that tliey 
strictly resemble gold we know — that they 
wear like gold, a friend of ours, who has 
worn one six months, assures us ; and 
that they are, therefore, (in the words of 
the advertisement.) "as good as gold, in 
all respects, except intrinsic value," we 
have reason to believe. Every watch is 
auAKANTEED by Special certificate. — Eliza- 
beth (TV. J.) Journal. See card on Map 
of County. 

Misses Rlcbardson Sc Haj'es, 
proprietors of the Ladies' Model Store, 
No. 113 Fulton street, Gloversville, N. Y., 
advertise on page 232. These ladies keep 
posted in regard to the latest styles, Hud 
exhibit great taste in the selection of their 
goods, knowing what is required for ladies 
wesr far better than gentlemen are sup- 
posed to know. They keep a full slock of 
all goods required for a lady's wardrobe, 
and spare no pains to please their custom- 
ers. The latest styles of Corsets, skiits 
&c., are constantly on hand, and Cloaks 
are cut to order. We advise all our lady 
friends to give them a call before purchas- 
ing elsewhere, feeling aesured that they 
will be satisfied.
